The correct answer is the following.

The two examples of how Jem Has grown in art 1 of "To Kill a Mockingbird" are:

Jem starts considering other's people perspectives, not only the one she thinks. She tries to understand other's people circumstances. Such as the case of her relationship to Bo Radley. Jem also learns the value of courage, when Atticus defends his sons and shoots a rabid dog with a rifle.

"To Kill a Mockingbird" was written by Harper Lee in 1960. The novel refers to the life of children confronted by social issues such as prejudice and racism in the South of the United States. Lee won the Pulitzer price in 1961for the success of his novel.

One of the clearest examples of how Jem grows up in Part 1 is the way he strives to be able to interact with Boo Radley. Jem overcomes the fear he has for this character (due to the stories he has heard around town) and tries to knock his front door. He also leaves notes for him, and organizes a night expedition.

A second example is the way his attitude toward Atticus changes. While at the beginning of the story he feels relatively comfortable playing around with Atticus's rules, he soon shows concern over disappointing him. His attitude towards his father shows increased maturity and a deeper understanding of why his father behaves the way he does.
