Answer:

The answer is explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question refers to the following:

"Before Jem went to his room, he looked for a long time at the Radley place. He seemed to be thinking again." In this passage, Scout's point of view helps readers understand Jem's perspective since she can explain what he is thinking because how deeply she knows him, even though readers cannot be sure about it.

Scout being the narrator helps us to understand Jem's point of view so much because she knows him very well and is able to explain what he is thinking and everything that is going on. She explains everything he is thinking and why to the reader.
