Question

What does this excerpt from Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Tom Sawyer reveal about Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer?

Answer 1

Answer is A, because they both superstitiously believe Friday is unlucky

Answer 2

Answer: The right answer is the A) Both are superstitious.

Explanation: Just to elaborate further on the answer, it can be added that the excerpt reveals that they are superstitious, since they believe that Fridays are unlucky days and, therefore, they are afraid to go to the haunted house. There are many other references throughout the text to their superstitions. It is relevant to recall that it was Friday when Tom missed school intentionally and got his clothes dirty after getting into a fight. As a result, he was told to paint the fence with whitewash as a punishment.
