Answer:
What I would have noted would be:
- Mayella has a difficult life.
- She hired Tom for a job and guaranteed to pay him a nickel.
- Did Mayella really offer Tom money?
- Tom raped her when she went to get his payment at home.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mayella is a character from "To kill a mockingbird". In her testimony, she states that she hired Tom Robinsson, a black man, to beat an old man. She says that she would pay a nickel for the service and that he agreed, but when she went into the house to get the money, Tom followed and raped her. Mayella also claims that she leads a difficult life taking care of her brothers and father who has problems with drinking.
About this testimony, the jury can write down important information, about how Mayella has a complicated life, why she got in touch with Tom and how Tom managed to get into her house.
