Since "To Kill a Mockingbird" is a story about growing up, there are many instances in the novel when the children attempt to walk in someone else's shoes.

Explanation:

"To Kill a Mockingbird" is Harper Lee's 1960 novel, which is considered as a classic of Modern American literature. The novel is about the Finch family, which consists of a father who is a lawyer (Atticus), and his children Scout and Jem.

As the novel is about growing up and maturing, there are many instances in which the children (and adults) learn to understand others. For instance, the children initially think that Boo Radley is dangerous for them, because they listen to the rumors about him. It is only at the end of the novel when he rescues them from Bob Ewell that the children truly get to know Boo and "walk in his shoes." Similarly, Jem believes that Mrs. Dubose is evil and has no understanding for her strange behavior towards him and Scout. However, when Jem finds out that she is dying, he changes his perspective and understands what it must feel like to be in her position.

read this passage from the crisis. what rationale is paine using for going to war with great britain? my own line of reasoning is to myself as straight and clear as a ray of light. not all the treasures of the world, so far as i believe, could have induced me to support an offensive war, for i think it murder; but if a thief breaks into my house, burns and destroys my property, and kills or threatens to kill me, or those that are in it, and to "bind me in all cases whatsoever" to his absolute will, am i to suffer it? what signifies it to me, whether he who does it is a king or a common man; my countryman or not my countryman; whether it be done by an individual villain, or an army of them? if we reason to the root of things we shall find no difference; neither can any just cause be assigned why we should punish in the one case and pardon in the other.

In the real world, feldman learned to settle for less than 95 percent. he came to consider a company “honest” if its payment rate was above 90 percent. he considered a rate between 80 and 90 percent “annoying but tolerable.” if a company habitually paid below 80 percent, feldman might post a hectoring note, like this one: the cost of bagels has gone up dramatically since the beginning of the year. unfortunately, the number of bagels that disappear without being paid for has also gone up. don’t let that continue. i don’t imagine that you would teach your children to cheat, so why do it yourselves? the excerpt serves as which type of support for the authors’ argument? a claim an example a conclusion a counterclaim
