Question

When a crowd gathers outside les’s house, Steve comments, “lets not be a mob!” What does this show about Steve ? Write one to three sentences explaining your answer.

Answer 1

Steve's comment about not becoming a mob suggests he values order, rational behavior, and peace when in a group setting, and is aware of the dangers of mob mentality.

Step-by-step explanation:

When Steve comments, "let's not be a mob!", it indicates that he is concerned about the potential for collective violence and the loss of individual responsibility that can occur when crowds form. This shows that Steve values order and reason, and recognizes the importance of maintaining peaceful and non-aggressive behavior in a group setting. His statement reflects an understanding that crowds can easily transition into mob mentality, where rational behavior is replaced by emotional and impulsive reactions.

Answer 2

Steve is trying to protect Les as he was the witness of what happened.

Step-by-step explanation:

"The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street" is the twenty-second episode of "The Twilight Zone." After the meteor hits the Maple Street, the power of the street is lost. Cars, lights, telephones and other electronic appliances stop. Les Goodman tries to start his car but it did not start, so he walks off towards his home, when suddenly his car starts on its own. the neighbors thinks him to be an alien start coming across the street towards his house. But Steve stops them saying, "Wait Wait a minute...wait a minute! Let's not be a mob!" because he witnessed what just happened with Goodman's car.
