Answer 1

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.
