<span>I think that this excerpt from chapter 23 of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn most clearly illustrates that the duke is someone who does not take responsibility for  his actions and would rather blame others if something does not go well:</span>

…Well, when the place couldn't hold no more people the duke he give a fellow a quarter and told him to tend door for him a minute, and then he started around for the stage door, I after him; but the minute we turned the corner and was in the dark he says:

«Walk fast now till you get away from the houses, and then shin for the raft like the dickens was after you!»….

1. What did the man think when the boy did not return at once?
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

1. What did the man think when the boy did not return at once?

<u>The man thought that the boy ran away with the money.</u>

2. What took the boy too long to return?

<u>The boy lost the money, so he had to clean the utensils of the tea vendor to have the cup of tea.</u>

3. What do you think the man felt after knowing it? Why?

<u>I think that he felt bad about himself because he judged the boy by his appearance.</u>

4. Does his experience reflect bias or prejudice? Why?

<u>His experience reflects prejudice because he judged the boy by his attire. He had the prejudice that poor or pathetically dressed boys are thefts.</u>

5. How can we avoid this kind of situation?

<u>We can avoid this kind of situation by learning through different experiences and texts, like this story. Also, we should reflect on our actions and thoughts to identify prejudices and work on them.</u>

Explanation:

1.We can see that the man thought that the boy ran away with the money in the fourth paragraph when he says, "Now I was sure that the child ran away the money..."

2. The answer to question number two is in the last paragraph when the boy explains what happened "He told me, he lost the 5 rupees coin and so he had to clean the utensils of the tea vendor, to bring me a cup of tea."

3. It is not in the story, but we can infer that he felt bad since he judged someone wrong and unfairly since the boy was not a thief. He only was pathetically dressed.

4. We can see that his experience reflects prejudice since he has a concept in his mind about people dressed in dirty and torn clothes. He relates the appearance of someone with traits, so there's prejudice because he is judging the boy without knowing him.

5. There are many ways to avoid these situations. One of them is by educating ourselves and reflecting on our thought and actions. We can do this in different ways. For example, by reading, talking with others about their experiences and point of view, or thinking about our actions.

(on the emigration to america and peopling the western country)
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The readers are taken on the journey with the speaker in, "On the emigration to America and peopling the Western Country" to the "untamed and virgin soil" of America from the land of Europe <em>"Where kings and priests enchain the mind."</em>

Explanation:

"On the Emigration to America and Peopling the Western Country" is a poem written by Philip Freneau, first published in 1785.

The poem is of narrative form. The speaker is talking about his <em>"emigration to America". </em>In his poem, Freneau, takes his reader to a journey<em> </em>beginning from,

<em>"From Europe's proud, despotic shores </em>

<em>Hither the stranger takes his way,"  </em>

The speaker talks about the beauty of nature of the United States and says that he will move from Europe's land, where slaves are insulted by the "crown"

<em>"Where no proud despot holds him down, </em>

<em>No slaves insult him with a crown."</em>

to the land of America where nature reigns, meaning that there is no interference of the "crown" in the "new found world" but the only rule is of the nature in this land.

<em>"And in our new found world explores </em>

<em>A happier soil, a milder sway,"</em>

The poem tells us of the cruelty in Europe by the crown and the freedom that's in America.
