Answer:

Darrow argues that giving the boys the death penalty would be a barbaric act that is not in line with the audience's beliefs.

Explanation:

First, it's important to understand if Darrow wants the death penalty or not. He is not in favor of the death penalty. Killing someone for committing a crime, in his opinion, is the caveman's system of punishment. Any option that suggests the boys deserve or should receive the death penalty must be eliminated. This leaves the first and third options. Second, the purpose behind referring to history, philosophy, and the teaching of others is to talk about the audience's beliefs. A person's belief system is usually built from their culture which includes history, philosophy and the teaching they follow. Darrow is saying that all of these sources view the death penalty as barbaric.

Which excerpt from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn contains humor? Well, that night we had our show; but there warn't only ab
uysha [10]

Answer:

And they laughed all the time, and that made the duke mad; and everybody left, anyway, before the show was over, but one boy which was asleep.

Explanation:

Mark Twain's "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" tells the story and adventures of a young boy 'Huck' and his life looking for adventures.

The above provided excerpt is from chapter XXII of the book where Huck had watched a circus show. Then, the duke's performance was viewed by only twelve people, not enough to get any profit. The lines "And they laughed all the time, and that made the duke mad; and everybody left, anyway, before the show was over, but one boy which was asleep" shows the humorous occasion in the context. The performance of the duke may have attracted just a meager number of audience but those viewing it still had a lot of fun and laughed, which made the duke met. But this was all supposed to be, for he's performing and it is on the audience how they react. The anger of the Duke made everyone leave before the show was even over, except one boy who couldn't leave for he had already fallen asleep to even leave.
