Answer:
The element of the setting that also becomes a main character in "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" is:
D. the Mississippi River
Explanation:
In Mark Twain's "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," the Mississippi River is as much a character as Huck and Jim themselves. The river is what takes Huck and Jim places, symbolizing freedom. But, besides that, the river, just like another character, is able to get them in and out of trouble, serving as a plot device. In other words, the river helps move the plot forward. The adventures mentioned in the book's title only happen because of the river.
I believe the correct answer is D. complexity of character.
A is incorrect because realist writers didn't believe in destiny; B is incorrect because not all realist novels have social trials; C is incorrect for the same reason - not all realist novels have tragic events. Therefore I would pick D, because complex characters reflect reality and what exists in our actual lives.
Answer:
I believe it is sincere.

It doesn't sound bleak or bitter and I'm pretty sure it's not matter-of-fact. I could be wrong.
McKay personifies America as a woman who feeds him "bread and bitterness" and who sinks her "tiger's tooth" into his throat. By using the pronouns she and her to refer to America, McKay turns the concept of a country into a person who can cause the narrator harm even while he loves her. The effect of this personification turns the relationship between the narrator and his country into a more personal relationship, full of the conflicting emotions that come along with loving a person.
