ill after him. But before they got in I was up in the upper berth, cornered, and sorry I come. Then they stood there, with their hands on the ledge of the berth, and talked. I couldn’t see them, but I could tell where they was by the whisky they’d been having. I was glad I didn’t drink whisky; but it wouldn’t made much difference anyway, because most of the time they couldn’t a treed me because I didn’t breathe. I was too scared. And, besides, a body COULDN’T breathe and hear such talk. They talked low and earnest. Bill wanted to kill Turner. He says: “He’s said he’ll tell, and he will. If we was to give both our shares to him NOW it wouldn’t make no difference after the row and the way we’ve served him. Shore’s you’re born, he’ll turn State’s evidence; now you hear ME. I’m for putting him out of his troubles." “So’m I,” says Packard, very quiet. " In at least one hundred words, how does Huck react to this situation, and how does his reaction reflect his coming to terms with his own morality?

Answer:

Huck reacts by not being able to speak or breathe because he is so scared. I think he is starting to realize that life isn't forever and life can be quickly ended by other people, so you have to be careful with what kind of situations you put yourself in and who you surround yourself with.

Two parts of a proverb​
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Proverbs are popular sayings which contain advice or state a generally accepted truth. Most proverbs have their origins in oral tradition, they are generally worded in such a way as to be remembered easily and tend to change little from generation to generation, so much so that sometimes their specific meaning is no longer relevant. For instance, the proverb “penny wise, pound foolish” is a holdover from when America was a British colony and used the pound as currency. Proverbs function as “folk wisdom,” general advice about how to act and live, and because they are folk wisdom, they are often strongly reflect the cultural values and physical environment from which they arise. Proverbs are used to support arguments, to provide lessons and instruction, and to stress shared values.
