Answer:

<u><em>He was not it seen like the most sympathetic light. He has a good heart educated by life experiences and a keen mind that knows when things are wrong. Of course that sets both Jim and Huck to get into a discussion about what is in books.</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

<u><em>Twain often uses Biblical Stories to illustrate the point he is trying to make. In chapter 14 in Huckleberry Finn is a classic example. Huck begins to tell Jim about Kings and Earls and Dukes and such and Jim is astonished. Then Jim makes the remark that sets up the moral point of Chapter 14. </em></u>

<u><em>Was King Solomon in the Bible Wise? Huck can relate the story. He has been well taught the "book leaned" version of Solomon. So it begins to tell Jim about splitting the child in half.</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

<u><em>Jim is horrified and angry.  He points out to Huck in very a very straight forward manner that, that Solomon was not only not wise, he is without feeling and has no idea what the value of a child really is. Anyone with a good heart would realize that cutting a child in half is no solution at all. Jim goes on to say that he had thousands of children and one more or less made no difference to him. His heart, his humanity  has been dulled by having too many of one thing that should be of immeasurable value. Jim knows something Solomon did not. Jim will do anything to get his family back.</em></u>

Whats the mood of the women in embroidery by Ray bradbury
Natalija [7]
In this story, we look at it as a semi futuristic setting with happenings that occur only in one house. The use of the literary devices are mixed to make a social commentary that discusses the idea that technology can be both the savior and maybe a destruction of mankind, and that even if not straightly responsible for any event, all of society is to blame when things turn out badly.The usage of foreshadowing is depicted in the almost immediate fact that the women are worried about something. Starting with the fact that its relevance will make supper useless, therefore hinting that it is likely to end up with the deaths of the characters.

The answer is B because "I have visited many cities including the following" indicates that there is going to be a list of cities. A colon is used to introduce a series of items or to separate two independent clauses; however the second sentence has to add on to the first.
