1. Comment on Jem's and Scout's visit to First Purchase Church. What does Scout learn about how black people live?
Calpurnia decides to take them to the first purchase church because Atticus ain`t home to take them to the church. They see another reality different from theirs. They hear another type of english and they see they had different ways of doin things, like when they sang the hymns.

2. Explain why Calpurnia speaks differently in the Finch household, and among her neighbours at church.
Because it is a context thing. It`s like a student talking to a friend and to a teacher.

3. Aunt Alexandra thinks Scout is "dull" (not clever). Why does she think this, and is she right?
Because she isn`t like a normal girls of her age, she doesn`t use dresses or do girl things and I think she is wrong.

4. How does Aunt Alexandra involve herself in Macomb's social life?
She was part of an amanuensis club. She also had invitation for drinking tea and those kind of things, she was known by the people in Maycomb.

5. Comment on Aunt Alexandra's ideas about breeding and family, in contrast to Atticus' visions. Who's right, do you think? Why?
They disagree in this. Aunt Alexandra thinks kids should always be behaving well and being an honour to the family. Atticus gives them more of a choice and he lets them learn by their own.

6. Comment on Atticus' definition of rape. How suitable is this definition as an answer to Scout?
Is a very direct definition, is a good definition and I think it was a good answer to Scout`s question.
