Honest The Characteristics of Charlie
32 My advanced english teacher asked me to call him Bill when were not
in class, and he gave me another book to read. He says that I have a great skill at reading and understanding language, and he wanted me to write an
essay about To Kill a Mockingbird. I mentioned this to my mom, and she asked why Bill didnt recommend that I just take a sophomore or junior
english class. And I told her that Bill said that these were basically the same classes with more complicated books, and that it wouldnt help me
pp. 9-10.
From Charlie’s statement above, it can be seen that Charlie has higher intelligent than the other students since Bill, his advanced English teacher, always gives him
another book to read after he finishes reading one book. Bill believes that Charlie can practice his reading and writing essay well in no time. Bill also tells Charlie
that his skill at reading and understanding language is very good. Furthermore, Charlie is in his sophomore year but Bill asks Charlie to take advanced English
class instead of junior English class which is provided for sophomore year student. Bill believes that taking junior English class will not help Charlie in increasing his
skill. Therefore, it can be seen that Charlie’s intelligence in reading and
understanding language is above the average students of his age. Charlie is an intelligent boy. According to Murphy, Charlie’s intelligent
characteristic can be seen through his manner and the description from the point of view of another Murphy, 1972.
Charlie always gets straight A’s just like his older sister. He also manages to take English Advanced Class which is supposed
to be taken for seniors.
