In the story "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" by Mark Twain, the blue tickets were given to students by the teacher for good behavior or achievements, which could be exchanged for prizes. On the other hand, the yellow tickets were given to students for completing tasks or chores, which could be exchanged for small trinkets or rewards from the teacher.
The pupil would get a prize.
One Sunday, on his way to Sunday school, Tom met up with a boy he knew and traded a fishhook and a piece of licorice for a "yaller" (yellow) ticket. As he went along, he traded various items he had for other children's' tickets of various colors. The tickets were a token that were given out when children correctly recited the Bible verses that they were supposed to learn. Every 2 verses earned the child a blue tickets with the Scripture written on it. Ten blue tickets equaled a red one. Ten red tickets could be turned in for a yellow ticket, and when a child had recited a total of 2000 verses, he would have earned 10 yellow tickets, whereupon he could turn in for a Bible. Tom may not have wanted to learn the verses, but was very interested in the glory received when a child turned in enough tickets for a Bible. That Sunday, a visitor came, Judge Thatcher, along with his wife and his daughter, Becky Thatcher, and when Tom laid eyes on Becky, his heart swelled with love, and his "engaged" girlfriend, Amy Lawrence swiftly left all his thoughts. Since the visiting Thatchers were given a special seating, Tom, used this opportunity to turn in his tickets for a Bible, whereupon he was also led to the special seating. Judge Thatcher was very impressed with this young man who had supposedly learned 2000 Scriptures, and praised him. What Tom wasn't ready for was for the Judge to give Tom the opportunity to show off his Biblical knowledge, and when asked who the first two disciples were, Tom, in his anxiety blurted out, "David and Goliath"!
The ticket that Tom gave to Mr. Walters in "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" was yellow. This ticket was for memorizing Bible verses, which Tom won as a prize for collecting a specified number of tickets.
Ten dollars.
Post it
he ride a yellow bike that hasten speed
no, he got a bible by getting the blue, yellow, and red tickets from other kids
Tom didn't memorize any Bible verses. In his church children received "tickets" as they memorized verse and could trade them in for a prize (a Bible) when enough were learned. Tom found children who did memorize verses and get tickets would trade them away for other things. He thus had an imposing number of tickets with no memory work whatsoever
yes 100%dum who created that question
Becky gave Tom a yellow ticket in "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer".
