It was back then, I’d say when I was around 8 years old. I would always watch horror movies and horror documentaries, which was a terrible idea at the time. Whenever I tend to finish them, I’d close the lights in living room and run as fast as I could upstairs into my room. My door would then be shut closed, my windows would be locked as I hide under my blankets frightened that monsters would get to me and eat me alive.
Another scenario, When I was maybe around 10 years old, I would use to go out the woods around my house at night with a flashlight. It was that one day, I can remember as clear as sky I saw glowing red eyes deep inside the forest. It was cold then, back in New York I used to live. I was frightened to death and ran back inside the house scared
Funny perhaps, I was a weird kid back then
The passage intends to show Huck's father as uneducated and ignorant, as shown in the second answer option.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- The excerpt shown above is a speech by Huck's father.
- In this passage, he shows a strong aversion to education and doesn't want Huck to go to school.
- That's because he thinks the school will make Huck superior to him, allowing Huck to be ashamed of his father.
- In that case, he wants Huck not to be educated, like him, so that Huck will never feel superior.
This shows how ignorant and uneducated Huck's father is, wanting Huck to match his ignorance.
