Jie cheng: During ww2, looters like me would be beheaded by the Japanese if we rebelled against them.The Japanese did this to gain respect from the people and also to instill fear and terror in the people. The heads would then later be displayed outside the Cathay building. The purpose of this is to warn people not to commit crime and also not to go against the Japanese.
The clock,dolls,chewing gum is refeering to one person.
As we all know,the person is Boo Radley.Why did he give Scout and Jem this things?We know that this is the past right and Scout is the one who is telling.
The other part,was about the drawing and tearing of Mokingbird.We know that it is a sin to kill a mokingbird as it brings joy to what Miss Maudie say.The mokingbird was the innocence.We can refer this as Atticus shows that every living things life is precious.Therefore,he hated shooting right.
In other part, if you see chapter 10 page 105 where it tells us that the mokingbird was silence.There had been something that happen right.You would surely ask ‘What happened?’ right

“I was the probate judge , for a change ; Dill led Jem away and crammed him beneath the steps , poking him with the brush-broom”
What does the word probate tells of the judge ?
Well i feel thats it tell me that the judge had to officially approve something which i could infer that he was a fair judge .
Why does Dill have to cram Jem beneath the steps ? Are they hiding something ?
Dill was poking Jem with the brush-broom , why did he do it ?

Atticus is a lawyer.I know this because the quote ‘when my father,Atticus Finch,went to Montgomery to read law’ tells me that Atticus is judging and also the father of scout.
