At the end of chapter 10 how does Huck decide he will get information from town

English
1 answer:
inn [45]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: Huck wonders about the dead man, but Jim warns that it’s bad luck to think about such things. Huck has already incurred bad luck, according to Jim, by finding and handling a snake’s shed skin. Sure enough, bad luck comes: as a joke, Huck puts a dead rattlesnake near Jim’s sleeping place, and its mate comes and bites Jim. Jim’s leg swells but gets better after several days. A while later, Huck decides to go ashore to get information. Jim agrees, but has Huck disguise himself as a girl, using one of the dresses they took from the houseboat. Huck practices his girl impersonation and then sets out for the Illinois shore. In a formerly abandoned shack, he finds a woman who looks about forty years old and appears to be a newcomer to the town. Huck is relieved because, as a newcomer, the woman will not be able to recognize him. Still, he resolves to remember that he is pretending to be a girl.

Why do Giles Corey and Francis nurse appear at the proctors house? This is also from the book “the crucible”
noname [10]

Answer:

They arrived because they wanted to warn John Proctor that their wives being arrested. ... He arrived to arrest Elizabeth Proctor and to search the house for any poppets. He is a warrant and is the person that arrests the accused.

More:

In Act Two, it becomes frighteningly apparent that the accusations of witchcraft have gotten out of control.  Elizabeth Proctor tells John at the beginning of the act that "there be fourteen people in jail," but by the time that Mary Warren gets home at the end of the day, that number has increased to "thirty-nine."  It becomes personal when Herrick and Cheever show up at the Proctor's door to arrest Elizabeth, on suspicion of sending her spirit out to stab Abigail in the stomach with a needle. So, Elizabeth Proctor is chained and put in a wagon with a lot of other women, to be taken to the jailhouse.

Francis Nurse and Giles Corey are also victims to the out-of-control accusations that are occuring; the same night that Elizabeth is arrested, their wives, Rebecca Nurse and Martha Corey are arrested too.  Rebecca is arrested for the "supernatural murder of Goody Putnam's babies," and Martha Corey for supposedly bewitching a guy's pigs so that they keep dying.  Francis and Giles go to Proctor, because they are seeking help--they want to find a way to get their wives freed.  They had already gone to the jailhouse but they weren't allowed to see their wives, so they come to John's house, desperate to come up with some sort of solution to get their wives released, as they are innocent of any crime.

John wants to help, but tells them to go home that night and that they will "speak on it tomorrow."  He needs time to think, to sort everything out in his head.  The next act shows the three men coming to the courts, and trying over and over to free their wives and friends.

What will the economy be like in the future?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

<u>Step 1:  Determine which options are correct  </u>

<em>What will the economy be like in the future?  </em>

- Option A:  too broad

<em>How can virtual reality be used in health care?  </em>

- Option C:  effective

<em>How many gallons of water will we use in 2025?  </em>

- Option B: too narrow

<em>What are the best strategies for increasing food production in the future?  </em>

- Option C: effective

For the first question, the reason why it is too broad is because the economy in the future is a huge topic.  It will not be able to be covered in one topic.  In questions two, the reason why the answer is effective is because this is a specified research question in a wide category.  For the third question, the answer is too narrow because there is really no use of knowing how much gallons of water we will use in 2025.  Finally, in the fourth question the answer is effective because it is a specified research question in a specific topic/category.
