Fifth Huck Finn Response

"Human beings can be awful cruel to one another". When Huck said this, I believe he was talking about when the two Idiots, The King and Duke, getting tarred and feathered following that by getting chased out of town. One of my all time favorite parts of the book I do say. What I believe Mark Twain meant for Huck to say that, even though we aren't supposed to find the point says Twain, that Huck, a mischief maker, still believes that Human beings can be too cruel to one another, showing once again another interesting side of Huck.

Fouth Huck Finn Response

What Huck decides to do about Jim was one of the most appalling moments in the story for me. Huck wanted to tell Miss Watson about Jim and give him back to her.He wanted to because he felt like during his whole trip with Jim that there was nothing illegal about them just traveling, but for Jim to become free sort of made Huck's brain just jolt for he didn't want to do anything illegal, and helping a slave become free was definitely not legal. But thank God that Huck came back to his sense and refused to do that, but when he went to go get Jim, he was gone, and was captured by the King and The Duke! So Huck went off saying "All right then, Hell it is!" to save Jim.

Third Huck Finn response

The way that the Duke and the King swindle the family at the funeral is that they pretended to be long their long lost sons, if you will, and try to obtain the fortune. When you really compare Huck to the two idiots, King and Duke, they both have similar qualities but also different. The alike ones are that they are all mischievous, sly, chronic liars, and like to do bad deeds. The different qualities are that Huck also does good deeds, protects his friends, and uses his lies for good reasons as well. The overall bad guy/s are obviously the two idiots, King and Duke.

Second Huck Finn Response

The reason why Huck wants to help the men on the wreck is quite unlike Huck. He wants to help those men, thats it, he wants to help them just because it was the right thing to do. This act shows us that even though Huck is what can be considered a bad guy, he is really more then anything mixed. When I say mixed is that he like to do bad things, but he also is a good person, thus mixed.

First Huck Finn response

The trick that Huck plays on Jim was quite funny to Huck; he put a dead rattlesnake in Jim’s bed. For Jim that was probably the scariest moment of his life. The reason why Huck tricked Jim now even though he wouldn’t do it before was that Huck was bored. When someone gets bored, hey anything can happen, even getting bitten by a snake.
