The correct answer is False.

Explanation

In the sentence "While the princess rested, a great festival was being arranged in her honor" there are an independent clause and a dependent clause. This can be established because the clause "a great festival was being arranged in her honor" is an independent clause, because it is a complete sentence that makes sense by itself and does not need another sentence for the reader to be able to understand. Additionally, the clause "while the princes rested" is a dependent clause because it must be complemented with the other sentence so that the reader can understand it. According to the above, the "while the princess rested" clause is a dependent clause.

From 1525-1866 how were many Africans were taken from their homeland?

Natalka [10]

Perhaps you, like me, were raised essentially to think of the slave experience primarily in terms of our black ancestors here in the United States. In other words, slavery was primarily about us, right, from Crispus Attucks and Phillis Wheatley, Benjamin Banneker and Richard Allen, all the way to Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth and Frederick Douglass. Think of this as an instance of what we might think of as African-American exceptionalism. (In other words, if it’s in “the black Experience,” it’s got to be about black Americans.) Well, think again.

Why does guck decide to steal back the sisters money? What is it about them that he has rarely encountered in other people?

Why does Huck decide to steal back the sisters' money? What is it about them that he has rarely encountered in other people?

They are orphans who are about to lose their homes.

They are kind, generous, and friendly to him.

They are much younger than he is and will be sent away.

They are better off financially than most people.

We can actually infer here that Huck decides to steal back the sisters' money because he saw that Dauphin doesn't deserve it. Huck then hides it in a coffin.

The thing about them that he has rarely encountered in other people is that they are orphans who are about to lose their homes.

Thus, option "A" is correct.

<h3>What is Adventures of Huckleberry Finn?</h3>

"Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" is actually known to be a novel that was written by Mark Twain. It was published first in 1884.

We see that Huck actually saw that Dauphin didn't actually deserve the money.

Thus, option "A" is correct.
