chapter 4 summary of to kill a mockingbird

Answer:

The rest of the school year passes grimly for Scout, who endures a curriculum that moves too slowly and leaves her constantly frustrated in class. After school one day, she passes the Radley Place and sees some tinfoil sticking out of a knothole in one of the Radleys’ oak trees. Scout reaches into the knothole and discovers two pieces of chewing gum. She chews both pieces and tells Jem about it. He panics and makes her spit it out. On the last day of school, however, they find two old “Indian-head” pennies hidden in the same knothole where Scout found the gum and decide to keep them.

Summer comes at last, school ends, and Dill returns to Maycomb. He, Scout, and Jem begin their games again. One of the first things they do is roll one another inside an old tire. On Scout’s turn, she rolls in front of the Radley steps, and Jem and Scout panic. However, this incident gives Jem the idea for their next game: they will play “Boo Radley.” As the summer passes, their game becomes more complicated, until they are acting out an entire Radley family melodrama. Eventually, however, Atticus catches them and asks if their game has anything to do with the Radleys. Jem lies, and Atticus goes back into the house. The kids wonder if it’s safe to play their game anymore.

The Prince Waits

The Prince of the Gold Portal sat cross-legged on a comfortable patch of long grass at the very lip of the glass-clear pond, in which silver and orange carp swam back and forth in idle, silent groups. Where was his tea, he wondered? He looked around to see whether the servants were arriving with the longed-for cup of steaming liquid. Dipping his fingers languidly into the cool pond, he delicately plucked out an oval-shaped purple leaf with fine-toothed edges, then let it drop so he could capture a newer one, a larger, brilliantly red leaf whose crinkled surface curled like the palm of a hand. Behind him, at the edge of the wide, sloping lawn, the tall, green fronds of bamboo waved, as mild as grazing sheep, and the politely clicking melody of wooden wind chimes wafted from the weathered pine balcony of his twelve-bedroom cottage. He would write a poem, he decided, for the leaf-watching festival, the Emperor’s favorite week of the year. A poem, perhaps about the bare slopes of Mount Atu, and a lone climber struggling up the mountainside as a late spring snow began to cover his shoulders. I am that climber, he thought, remembering the recent power struggles at the palace.

All the nobles and royals of the court would be present at the poetry reading contest, returning from their summer retreats to begin the excitement of the new social season. Cranes would fly picturesquely across the face of the full moon; toy paper boats carrying small-flamed candles would drift like glad-eyed children on the palace’s artificial lake. Sighing with expectation, the prince inhaled deeply the thin, tickling tang of pine-needle incense. Yes, the Emperor would approve of his poem, and perhaps grant him an honor such as the green sash of the Keeper of the Park! Our civilization, the prince thought, has reached a glorious peak.

How does this passage convey a sense of the time during which the scene occurs?

It specifies that the poem will be about a late spring snow.

It mentions a full moon, cranes, and toy boats floating on a stream.

It shows the prince's thoughts about certain events.

It describes objects in nature that indicate the season.

What makes a spot like Death Valley or Moab or Organ Pipe Monument so all-fired dry? Or for that matter a huge region like the Sahara? Or the Taklimakan Desert of western China? Is it purely fortuitous that one geographical area-say the Amazon Basin-should receive buckets of moisture while another area not far away-the Atacama-Peruvian Desert-gets so precious little? The answer to that is no. Not at all fortuitous. Three different geophysical factors combine, generally at least two in each case, to produce the world?s various zones of drastic and permanent drought: (1) high pressure systems of air in the horse latitudes, (2) shadowing mountains, and (3) cool ocean currents.

Which of the following best states the question posed by the paragraph?

A) What makes Death Valley so especially dry?

B) Which geophysical factor is most important in the creation of a desert?

C) How long does it take to produce a desert?

D) What factors lead to the creation of a desert?

(4)- Which is the best prediction about what might be included in the "Victory
through Air Power!” section?
A)- Examples of the advances of black female mathematicians
B)- Concluding remarks about the inclusion of black women in scientific fields
C)- Scientific explanation of how airplanes work
D)- Background on the production of airplanes during World War II
