Read the excerpt below and answer the question. It didn't take me long to make up my mind that these liars warn't no kings nor d

ukes at all, but just low-down humbugs and frauds. But I never said nothing, never let on; kept it to myself; it's the best way; then you don't have no quarrels, and don't get into no trouble. If they wanted us to call them kings and dukes, I hadn't no objections, 'long as it would keep peace in the family; and it warn't no use to tell Jim, so I didn't tell him. If I never learnt nothing else out of pap, I learnt that the best way to get along with his kind of people is to let them have their own way.

The answer is foreshadowing.

Foreshadowing is a literary technique used to suggest that a series of events may occur in the development of the story.

In this excerpt from "Huckleberry Finn," Huck refers to the forgery of the King and Duke. He has realized that they are not really royals - they are indeed impostors. However, he decides not to tell anybody that he has doubts about them because he does not want to get into trouble.

Part 1: Overview Your assignment is to write a 15- to 20-word summary of the passage "Chants, curse can't stop Red Sox" by Steve
wlad13 [49]

The main idea of “Chants, curse can't stop Red Sox” is how Red Sox overcomes the odds to defeat the New York Yankees.  

Explanation:

Red Sox had once labeled Yankees as the empire of the evil. And after its win over the Yankees, it claimed "all empires fall so must the Yankees".

The passage shows how a wildcard Red Sox turned history on its head by defeating the New York Yankees. Playing at a much smaller remuneration, Red Sox proved its mantle and registered one of the most stunning victories against the highly-rated Yankees.

No chants or curses could stop the Red Sox from making history.
