Now the way that the book winds up is this: Tom and me found the money that the robbers hid in the cave, and it made us rich. We

got six thousand dollars apiece--all gold. It was an awful sight of money when it was piled up. Well, Judge Thatcher he took it and put it out at interest, and it fetched us a dollar a day apiece all the year round --more than a body could tell what to do with. The Widow Douglas she took me for her son, and allowed she would sivilize me; but it was rough living in the house all the time, considering how dismal regular and decent the widow was in all her ways; and so when I couldn't stand it no longer I lit out. I got into my old rags and my sugar-hogshead again, and was free and satisfied. But Tom Sawyer he hunted me up and said he was going to start a band of robbers, and I might join if I would go back to the widow and be respectable. So I went back.
From this passage the reader can tell that the speaker, Huck Finn, values
A) the law, the courts, and the government.
B) freedom, plain-spoken speech, and mischief.
C) wealth, material goods, and the love of women.
D) respectability, civilization, and polite manners.

The answer is:

B) freedom, plain-spoken speech, and mischief.  

In the passage from "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," by Mark Twain, the protagonist makes reference to the robbers' money he and Tom found in the cave. After receiving a dollar a day, he is adopted by the Widow Douglas, However, he then prefers to be independent than to follow her appropriate rules. He also uses a straightforward manner of speaking, especially to the window and her sister, and goes back to the house after Tom invites him to become a member of a band of robbers.

PLS HELP ASAP THIS IS DUE TODAY. Write a sonnet about nature .​
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

(NOT MY SONNET)

Explanation:

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?

Thou art more lovely and more temperate:

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,

And summer’s lease hath all too short a date:

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,

And often is his gold complexion dimm’d;

And every fair from fair sometime declines,

By chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimm’d;

But thy eternal summer shall not fade

Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st;

Nor shall Death brag thou wander’st in his shade,

When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st;

So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,

So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
