Answer:
Some bears hibernate in hollowed-out tree trunks. Some take a months-long rest beneath thick brambles and brush. Others dig into the hills to forge snug dens. And still others discover caves to hide away from the biting winter chill. But wherever a bear chooses to hibernate, the objective is the same. It's a keen adaptation to avoid the long, ruthless winter famine. Hibernating animals — including ground squirrels, groundhogs, and bats — slow their breaths, reduce their heartbeats, and substantially wind down, or depress, their metabolisms. Such dramatic changes can be taxing on their bodies, but the alternative, amid a starving winter, is almost certain death. So, come fall, the animals go into a controlled, coma-like state.

Answer: Huck wonders about the dead man, but Jim warns that it’s bad luck to think about such things. Huck has already incurred bad luck, according to Jim, by finding and handling a snake’s shed skin. Sure enough, bad luck comes: as a joke, Huck puts a dead rattlesnake near Jim’s sleeping place, and its mate comes and bites Jim. Jim’s leg swells but gets better after several days. A while later, Huck decides to go ashore to get information. Jim agrees, but has Huck disguise himself as a girl, using one of the dresses they took from the houseboat. Huck practices his girl impersonation and then sets out for the Illinois shore. In a formerly abandoned shack, he finds a woman who looks about forty years old and appears to be a newcomer to the town. Huck is relieved because, as a newcomer, the woman will not be able to recognize him. Still, he resolves to remember that he is pretending to be a girl.
