    What purpose(s) does Huck's death serve?

    • Huck "gets even" with Widow Douglass because she was so mean to him.

    • It throws Jim and Pap together so they must depend on each other.

    • It gives him total freedom.

    • It shows Huck how totally dependent on civilization he has become.

    Correct Answer
    A. It gives him total freedom.
    Explanation
    Huck's death serves the purpose of giving him total freedom. By faking his own death, Huck is able to escape the constraints of society and the expectations placed upon him. He is no longer bound by the rules and restrictions of civilization, allowing him to live life on his own terms and make his own decisions without interference. This newfound freedom enables him to embark on his journey down the river with Jim, where they can both seek liberation from the oppressive forces of society.

    A. Widow Douglas's attitude toward Huck.

Pap's attitude toward government, Jim's attitude toward slavery, and Huck's attitude toward civilization all represent conflicts where individuals have opposing views or attitudes towards societal norms or institutions. However, Widow Douglas's attitude toward Huck does not represent a conflict between an individual and society. Instead, it represents a conflict between two individuals, where Widow Douglas may disapprove of Huck's behavior or lifestyle choices.
