Answer:
this is an excerpt from the "Allegory of the cave" written by Plato.
Explanation:
The "Allegory of the cave" was a story created by Plato to show how the knowledge of a truth is directly linked to the individual knowledge of individuals, mainly individuals who are in a leadership position.
This allegory can be interpreted as the way that Plato found to show how the human being has constantly regressed, sinking into alienations and becoming a victim of the cave itself, even having the intellect necessary to be free. This is happening because the human being is indulging in laziness, stimulated by the quick access to information and the lack of reasoning that this causes.

This question refers to the story "The Story of the Bad Little Boy" by Mark Twain. In this story, Twain talks about a boy who was very bad, but who never felt guilty, received a punishment or was particularly unhappy. According to Twain, this shows that the moral stories that we find in "Sunday-school books" do not reflect reality.
One of the elements in the boy's life (Jim) that did not resemble those stories was his mother. Jim's mother was not a sick and pious woman like those often found in such stories. Instead, she was tough, healthy and "stout." Moreover, she was not religious, and she did not worry about Jim in any way. Instead, she cared little for him and physically hit him, spanking him and boxing his ears.
the element that is best represented by the excerpt is: stage directions,
it is shown by using imperative forms of verbs ( exit, enter)
