Jim in the story play a character resembling achetypal hero who sacrifices for the good of his family.

Explanation:

Jim in the story is represented as a hero who led Huck and the family through all times. He has been portrayed as a man of intelligence and compassion but gullible nature. This nature of his is inferred to his upbringing in a regressive surrounding.

Jim is further represented as superstitious (a reference to his ominous warning of rain when struck on the island) but this superstition is, in turn, his deep understanding of the mother nature. Jim through all twist and turns has acted as a surrogate father to Huck.

He cooks, shelters him, guides him and cares for him. However, Jim remains at the mercy of every other character of the story. Even the tiny Huck threatens him (letter to Miss Watson). He acts as the most matured member of the family and sets an example for others to follow.

Participles are words that are formed from verbs but act as adjectives. They are called <em>verbals</em>.  What is more, phrases are a group of words without a subject and a verb that function as as single part of speech.  Therefore, participles consist of the participle and its complements and modifiers.

Taking all this into account, it can be said that the participial phrase is "trimmed that morning" and that it modifies the noun "grass".  This is a past participle which is further specified by the NP "that morning" which gives information about the time in which the grass was trimmed.

What do the phrases "made man" and "making of a man" mean in the context of the story? Use evidence from the text to explain you
alekssr [168]
The phrase "making of a man" refers to the process by which a man becomes successful or prosperous, while the phrase "made man" refers to actually being successful. 
The phrase "making of a man" is used when Henry discusses Harris’s "humble feeding house." He says, "I was the making of Harris. The fact had gone all abroad that the foreign crank who carried million-pound bills in his vest pocket was the patron saint of the place.” When people find out that Henry, already known for having a million-pound bank note, breakfasts at Harris’s eating house, the restaurant’s popularity skyrockets. Earlier, Harris’s eating house had been "poor, struggling," but it became "celebrated, and overcrowded with customers" after London society hears that Henry eats there. 
The phrase "made man" is used when Henry is caricatured in Punch. He says, "Punch caricatured me! Yes, I was a made man now; my place was established. I might be joked about still, but reverently, not hilariously, not rudely; I could be smiled at, but not laughed at." Because he was mimicked so publicly, Henry becomes famous, and his good reputation is solidified.
