Mr. Gascoigne  can be characterized with the word <em>pompousness </em>because his politcial talks related to patriotism and national glory. Indeed, pompousness is synonymous with excessive pride and exaggeration. After his talk, upcoming sentence characterizes Colonel Killgrew's traits. His behavior is relevant with the word <em>lust </em>because he was looking to a beautiful woman named Widow Wycherly. The latter is characterized in the beginning of the paragraph. Her character is synonymous with <em>vanity</em>. The widow does not realize that she is not beautiful. And final sentences is about Mr. Medbourne. He is <em>greed</em>y because all he do in this scene is just to calculate the amount of money.

How does Jim respond to the stories Huck reads about royalty
Grace [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

- Huck reads to Jim the story of King Solomon.

- Jim misses the point of the story, because he can't understand why Solomon is considered wise if he wanted to cut a baby in half.

- Huck tells the story of King Louis XVI and the dauphin (although he thinks the word is "dolphin"), but he is unable to convince Jim that French people would not understand English. He is unable to explain it and is tired of arguing, so he gives up.
