Question

atticus looked sternly across his newspaper at me. \i did not.\ jem restrained me from further questions; he said atticus was still touchy about it and the radleys and it wouldnt do to push him any
that morning i awoke, looked out the window and nearly died of fright. my screams brought atticus from his bathroom half-shaven.
\the worlds endin, atticus! please do something--\
i dragged him to the window and pointed.

o its not,\ he said. \its snowing.\
jem asked atticus would it keep up. jem had never seen snow either, but he knew what it was. atticus said he didnt know any more about snow than jem did. \i think, though, if its watery like that, itll turn to rain.\
...
when atticus finally called us to order and bade us look at our plates instead of out the windows, jem asked, \how do you make a snowman?\
\i havent the slightest idea,\ said atticus. \i dont want you all to be disappointed, but i doubt if therell be enough snow for a snowball, even.\
calpurnia came in and said she thought it was sticking. when we ran to the back yard, it was covered with a feeble layer of soggy snow.
\we shouldnt walk about in it,\ said jem. \look, every step you takes melting it.\
i looked back at my mushy footprints. jem said if we waited until it snowed some more we could scrape it all up for a snowman. i stuck out my tongue and caught a fat flake. it burned.
\jem, its hot!\

o it aint, its so cold it burns. now dont eat it, scout, youre wasting it. let it come down.\
\but i want to walk in it.\
\i know what, we can go walk over at miss maudies.\
jem hopped across the front yard. i followed in his tracks. when we were on the sidewalk in front of miss maudies, mr. avery accosted us. he had a pink face and a big stomach below his belt.
\see what youve done?\ he said. \hasnt snowed in maycomb since appomattox. its bad children like you makes the seasons change.\
i ... reflected that if this was our reward, there was something to say for sin.

what is the meaning of abominations as used in the passage?
abominations
perfections
abominable

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The word "aberrations" appears in Mr. Avery's line where he blames children for the unusual snowfall in Maycomb (a rare event for the area). In this context, it refers to something that deviates from the normal, expected pattern of seasons/weather. "Abnormalities" matches this meaning, as it describes things that are not typical or usual. "Perfections" has the opposite meaning, so it is incorrect.

Answer:

abnormalities
