Answer:

A.

Explanation:

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a novel penned by Mark Twain. The novel narrates the adventures of Huckleberry Finn or 'Huck' as known by his friends. The novel is written in First Person Narrative.

<u>The given quote appears in chapter 22 of the novel, where Huck goes to a circus. There a show by a quick-witted clown was to be performed. The show was seen by only twelve people and after the show, the duke hanged a handbill with a note written stating 'Ladies and children not admitted.' This was an advertising scheme by the duke to attract more audience to his show. The show was to be performed on 'The King’s Cameleopard' and thus does not permit women and children. This viewpoint conveys the message that such naughty thrills tend to tempt people</u>.

So, the correct answer is option A.

Why does Edwards claim that nonbelievers are akin to spiders in "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God"?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

II. Spiders are powerless should a rock fall on them.

Edwards uses this comparison of non-believers to a spider to show that should God decide to send someone to hell, he or she does not have the power to stop it. Even if the non-believer felt assured and arrogant about it, he would still not have the ability to keep himself out of Hell. Option I is incorrect because Puritans, like Edwards, did not believe that any of God's creations were a mistake. Option III is also incorrect because the purpose is not to show the expendable nature of the spider, but rather the almighty power of God.
