Hello. You forgot to mention that this question is about "The Glass Menagerie".
Answer:
Jim advises Tom to take an oratory course. At this point, Tom states that the plans he has planned for his life do not include speaking well in public, so he will not take the course.
In addition, Tom says that "the movies" are boring.
Step-by-step explanation:
In scene six of "The Glass Menagerie," we learn that Tom was an admirable person in his high school days and everyone believed he had a promising future ahead of him, however, he ended up working in a warehouse. Jim is a little saddened by Tom's situation and advises him to take a public speaking course, as the ability to speak well in public is very important in executive positions. Tom does not seem to like the advice very much and says that speaking well and assuming executive positions does not fit his plans.
He later claims that "the movies" bore him and that he wants to find a way to "move them around".
