Read the excerpt below and answer the question. I therefore filled all the little spaces, that occurred between the remarkable d

ays in the Calendar, with proverbial sentences, chiefly such as inculcated industry and frugality, as the means of procuring wealth, and thereby securing virtue; it being more difficult for a man in want to act always honestly, as (to use here one of those proverbs), "It is hard for an empty sack to stand upright." —Benjamin Franklin, "The Way to Wealth," 1758 Which of the following best explains the phrase, "it being more difficult for a man in want to act always honestly"?

From the options given, the statement that best explains the given phrase is this: WEALTH MAKES PEOPLE VIRTUOUS. The reference made to the inability of an empty sack to stand upright also lends to this, because when a sack is filled up, it becomes easy for it to stand upright. That is to say, may a man has wealth, it's easy to be virtuous.

In at least one hundred words, describe Huck's plan to get Jim back and then help him escape. Explain why you think it is a good
-Dominant- [34]
Huck's realistic response is each funny and revealing at the same time. on the floor, it's far obvious that Jim does not want to preserve a journal, however, the reality that Jim is captive at some stage in this time is an overriding shadow on the slapstick humor. The potential to read and write became now not commonplace amongst everybody within the mid-1800s, and because Jim is a slave, his being capable of write is a lot greater unlikely. extra important, but, is the realization that Huck cannot forestall the nonsensical plans due to the fact he and Jim are trapped within the confines of a racist society.

Neither Huck nor Jim is capable of dissuading or adjust Tom's plans besides in minor approaches, and their failed attempts represent their ill-fated efforts to absolutely break out civilization's conventions. The biting satire is plain when Huck wonders about the logic of digging a tunnel with ordinary case-knives. while he questions Tom, Tom replies that "It does not make no difference how silly it is, it's the right manner . . . . And there ain't no different way, that ever I heard of, and I have examined all the books that offer any records about these items." As a representative of proper society, Tom summarizes civilization's reliance on lifestyle and current legal guidelines that have been recorded, regardless of their lack of humanity and compassion.
