Answer:

The answer is (A) the air was in the early morning; like the flap of a wave; the kiss of a wave.

Explanation:

The air was in the early morning; like the fold of a wave; the kiss of a wave.What a songbird! What a dive! For so it had dependably appeared to her, when, with a little squeak of the pivots, which she could hear now, she had blasted open the French windows and dove at Burton away from any detectable hindrance air. How new, how quiet, stiller than this obviously, the air was in the early morning; like the fold of a wave; the kiss of a wave; chill and sharp but then grave, feeling as she did, remaining there at the open window, that something dreadful was going to occur.

Give three examples of how the author gives a sense of Jem's character in the first chapter. Discuss the author's use of verb mo
Zarrin [17]
Unlike Atticus and Calpurnia, Harper Lee does not give us a paragraph describing Jem. Instead we must learn about his character through his actions and speech. Sometimes Scout will use a descriptive sentence for her brother's character but mostly the reader learns about him as the story progresses. Many of Jem's statements in the first chapter are written in the imperative mood. For example, he says, "Don't blame me when he gouges your eyes out." By using the imperative mood, Harper Lee shows Jem to be older and seemingly the leader of Dill and Scout. The use of the indicative mood in Jem's dialogue also shows his stubbornness as a leader. When Dill is pressuring him into touching the house of Boo Radley, Jem says, "I'm going...don't hurry me." Even though Jem is worried about what may happen when he touches the house, he stays in control of the situation by using both the indicative and imperative mood in this sentence. Jem is also seen as the protector of Scout. When Jem is hesitant about making Boo Radley come out of the house because he fears for his life, Scout notes, "Besides, Jem had his little sister to think of." It is clear from this sentence, that Jem looks out for Scout which shows that he is a protective, responsible older brother.
