Answer:

Twain is satirizing society’s greed by having Huck’s father return under the pretense of caring for Huck when all he really wants is money.

Explanation:

According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:

  • Twain is satirizing society’s greed by having Huck’s father return under the pretense of caring for Huck when all he really wants is money.
  • Twain is satirizing society’s dishonesty by having Huck hide his money to appear as though he is too selfish to share with his own father.
  • Twain is satirizing society’s disrespect by characterizing Huck as someone who is so rude that he cannot even treat his father with respect.
  • Twain is satirizing society’s ingratitude by characterizing Huck as someone too selfish to appreciate anything his father has ever done for him.

In Chapter 5, Twain satirizes society's greed through the character of Huck's father. Twain wants to show that society is so greedy that its interest for money can dominate even a father's concern for his children. Satire is a genre of literature in which an author mocks the shortcomings and follies of society, usually with the purpose of encouraging social change.
