Question

1) Tom is a "general" in an "army." Do you think that there is anything

Answer 1

Answer:

The kind of fight Tom and his friends engaged in was a funny imitation of the real thing. It was funny that the opposing generals were 'bosom friends' who never fought each other.

Explanation:

In the 'Adventures of Tom Sawyer' by Mark Twain, we learn of little Tom who lived with his Aunt, Polly. He would try to finish his duties at home on time so that he could go play with his friends.

In one of these plays, Tom was a general, while his very good friend Joe Harper was the opposing general. It is funny that his enemy was his 'bosom friend'. Asides from that they perfectly imitated generals by giving orders to their subordinates and instructions on how to carry out their operations.
