1.)  The irony is that Huck living back in a respectable home is not contrary to the the nature of being in a band of bank robbers. Bank robbers would not be in the respectable home in the first place. Tom wants him to have a good life and not become bad.

2.) Huck's practice of his religion was different from the widows because he never saw the point of striving to go to heaven, but the widow always did.  His practices of religion are like Jim's because they are both superstitious.

3.) Mark Twain built the suspense by having Huck and Tom hide in the bushes. During the time in the bushes, Huck starts itching and can't scratch. During this time, the reader doesn't know if they will get caught or not.

4.) The sentence is meant to show that Jim is very popular among his fellow slaves. He is popular because they believed that he has had a supernatural experience and they thought he believed he was better than they were and was too good for slave work. The foreshadowing is Jim's future of being a slave or leaving and no longer being a slave depending on his own superstitions.

5.) Tom lets his breeding slip when he was plotting the kidnapping and murders by mentioning the books he had read before. He does not bring up any real life scenarios since he only read about them in books. Since he was brought up wealthy, he had the schooling that others did not in the gang.

6.) At the end of Chapter 3, he believes that the Sunday school is spreading misinformation/lies. He believes that they are using elements of the imagination the way that Tom is living out his fantasies. Huck never had the faith or time to live out any fantasies as a boy since he was always trying to survive on the streets.

7.) Huck had several superstitious beliefs. Two of them in the book are when he throws salt over his shoulder when he is at the table before eating. Another is when he spoke with Jim about the hairball.

8.) Huck, I think, wants to get rid of the money because he is in fear that his father has come to town to take it away from him. Judge Badger is a great guy and helps Huck to keep the money by buying it from Huck with the promise to sell it back when his father is no longer in town.

9.) Huck is not showing off in front of his father even though his father keeps accusing him of this. His father is jealous, perhaps, and wishes that he could of had the experiences and opportunities that Huck is now having at this time in his life.

"The book "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" is a children's classic written by the author Mark Twain." The story was written in 1884 and is still being read in schools today.

What type of plot structure allows authors to follow different characters through their own separate narratives, eventually conv
Olegator [25]
In media res is when a character is dropped in the middle of action, and that being the beginning of the story.  A flash forward is something that is shown in the story out of chronological order, usually for dramatic effect or irony. Episodic plot structures are much like TV show episodes, following a rising action-climax -rising action-climax pattern. I believe the answer you are looking for is Parallel Plot Structure. :)

Explain Thoreau's figurative use of the word “burrowing” in the final paragraph. What is he digging for?
ch4aika [34]

Henry David Thoreau was an American essayist, poet, philosopher, abolitionist, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, and historian, two of his greatest works are: "Resistance to Civil Government" (also known as "Civil Disobedience") and "The Mask of Anarchy". His ideals can be summarized by this statement: “the Government should not have more power than the bestowed by its citizens”.

Henry David Thoreau was even imprisoned for refusing to pay taxes in protest for the Mexican-American War and the slavery.

Thoreau was an idealist; he opposed the oppression and tyranny from the government and I think that more people like him should exist for we need more free thinkers to defend the common citizen from the oppressive government we sometimes have.

In the first Chapter of Walden, "Economy," Thoreau explains how and why he wanted to live alone and why simplicity would help him to be more free. With less luxuries, less property, and less material things, a man is more free to do as he pleases.

this is the paragraph that you should have included from Economy:

<em>"My instinct tells me that my head is an organ for burrowing, as some creatures use their snout and fore paws, and with it I would mine and burrow my way through these hills."</em>

In this paragraph Thoreau uses the word Burrowing as "obtaining" or "acquiring" what he needs to live from the world and its nature. He is digging for nourishment and food, for both his body and soul. He is suggesting that we can live off from nature without depending from the social system or the government.
