The gray room was awfully dull.
Answer:
The author emphasizes the value of Della’s hair by contrasting its beauty with the plainness of her possessions.
Explanation:
The author presents a contrasting picture of the things owned by Della. The difference between her old clothes and her beautiful hair has been presented in a very subtle way. It also presents a description of the things possessed by Della. The description of her long hair brings into consideration that it was the only materialistic thing that she possessed in her life. The beauty of her hair also presents a contrast to the 'plainness' of her life. In the story, the couple traded their most loved materialistic things to gift a materialistic gift to each other. They sacrificed their most valuable things to buy happiness for each other.
Answer and Explanation:
The characters trying to change Huck are the widow Douglas and Mrs. Watson. They feel that Huck is rude, uncivilized and behaves like a savage and not like a white southern kid should act. They feel responsible for "fixing" him and preventing him from becoming an unworthy adult and outside the social standards desired by southern society.
Widow Douglas doesn't change all of Huck's clothes, forces him to church and school, and wants him to stop unbecoming childlike habits like smoking. She wants him to become a Christian gentleman. Mrs. Watson, on the other hand, doesn't like him to be illiterate and rude. She tries to teach him to read and wants him to adopt Christian behavior.
It should be noted that Huck is the main character of "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," a book that tells the story of Huck, an adventurous boy, who escapes from an inhospitable environment and lives many adventures, discovering new concepts, breaking prejudices and making friendships.
