describe a particular incident in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn that you really liked and explain why.
Answer:
Jim and Huck find a number of valuables among the robbers’ bounty from the Walter Scott, mostly books, clothes, and cigars. As they relax in the woods and wait for nightfall before traveling again, Huck reads books from the wreck, and the two discuss what Huck calls their “adventures.” Jim says he doesn’t enjoy adventures, as they could easily end in his death or capture. Huck astonishes Jim with stories of kings, first reading from books and then adding some of his own, made-up stories. Jim had only heard of King Solomon, whom he considers a fool for wanting to chop a baby in half. Huck cannot convince Jim otherwise. Huck tells Jim about the dauphin (whom Huck mistakenly calls the “dolphin”), the son of the executed King Louis XVI of France. The dauphin currently is rumored to be wandering America. Jim refuses to believe that the French do not speak English, as Huck explains. Huck tries to argue the point with Jim but gives up in defeat.

The wilderness has sharply precipitated the complex European life into the simplicity of primitive conditions.
Jeffersonian democracy was transformed into Jacksonian democracy by the frontier. Because the wilderness defies control, the individualism fostered by the frontier's wilderness created a national spirit complementary to democracy.

pls pls );
Answer:
I would choose to vote for Joe Biden because of his desire to unite the country as opposed to dividing it as Donald Trump has done in the past. He goes above and beyond to understand the American people, especially those who may disagree with him and his policies. For example, after his town hall he stayed beyond the time he was given to continue to speak to voters in the crowd. He speaks truthfully and clearly never claiming that he always knows what the answer is or he knows best. He knows when to ask for help and seek advice.

Do you believe that sarcasm is confusing, or is the condemnation more a result of not wanting criticism? Can sarcasm really be prevented? Do continuing comments in the U.S. About "fake news" suggest this country's impatience with sarcasm and/or criticism? Explain your reasoning.
Answer:
Sarcasm indeed can be confusing.
Explanation:
Sarcasm indeed can be confusing to some extent. Sarcasm can be understood as "indirect criticism", what you say manifest exactly the oposite of what you really mean with the comment.
Sarcasm cannot be prevented, it is a very "human" activity due to the high symbolism, and complexities of human interaction, sarcasm is expected to exist in one way or another.
Yes, the continuing comments in the U.S about fake news may have something to do with the country's growingly "autistic" impatience with sarcasm and criticism.

Help will give Brainly! What Gothic Literature elements are found in the poem “The raven”
Answer:
First, the fact that the poem begins on a "midnight dreary" establishes a very mysterious and bleak mood; it seems from the first line that odd and unaccountable things are going to happen. The speaker is filled with "fantastic terrors," and his heart beats quickly in anxiety and fear. We know that he has recently lost a woman he loved, Lenore, and when he suddenly hears a knock at his door, he opens it to find no one there and believes that it could be the ghost of his "lost Lenore." A phantom "rapping" at the door, a sound or which he cannot account through natural means, is certainly gothic.
