To WeiHoon,
You wrote “This sentence shows that Scout is very ignorant and rude.” from where can you judge that Scout is ignorant?
From Scout’s attitude towards Walter was rude and she even hit him in school.
(Actually, I’m not very sure how to answer this question.)
We will discuss about this few questions in school with our leader (sunarsih) and then finalise all the answers.

We will have to discuss it online tonight so please make sure to online tonight for further discussions.
Okay.
