Answer: C) The novel is about a woman who is young, poor, and hardworking.

Explanation: parallelism is a literary device that consists in the repetition of the grammatical structure of different words or phrases in a sentence or paragraph, in order to emphasize an idea or to create an impact in the audience. The given sentence has a faulty parallelism because the first two elements of the list (young and poor) are adjectives, while the last element is a verb and an adverb (works hard). The option that corrects this error is option C, because it changes "works hard" for "hardworking" which is also an adjective.

"And he lost his mind in consequence?"
alexdok [17]

Answer: B) as a result

Explanation:

The meaning of the phrase "in consequence" is "as a result."

If something happens first, and something else happens afterwards in consequence, it happens as a result of the first event.

In this particular example, a man has lost his mind because of an event that is not mentioned, and has not been sane since then. His insanity is, therefore, a result (or a consequence) of that event. We can assume that the person described a traumatic event that the man experienced, and the other person replied with a question:<em> "And he lost his mind in consequence?" </em>

At the end of chapter 10 how does Huck decide he will get information from town
inn [45]

Answer: Huck wonders about the dead man, but Jim warns that it’s bad luck to think about such things. Huck has already incurred bad luck, according to Jim, by finding and handling a snake’s shed skin. Sure enough, bad luck comes: as a joke, Huck puts a dead rattlesnake near Jim’s sleeping place, and its mate comes and bites Jim. Jim’s leg swells but gets better after several days. A while later, Huck decides to go ashore to get information. Jim agrees, but has Huck disguise himself as a girl, using one of the dresses they took from the houseboat. Huck practices his girl impersonation and then sets out for the Illinois shore. In a formerly abandoned shack, he finds a woman who looks about forty years old and appears to be a newcomer to the town. Huck is relieved because, as a newcomer, the woman will not be able to recognize him. Still, he resolves to remember that he is pretending to be a girl.
