Select the correct answer. What does this excerpt from Mark Twain's The Adventures of Tom Sawyer reveal about Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer?
Huck Finn's wealth and the fact that he was now under the Widow Douglas' protection introduced him into society-no, dragged him into it,
hurled him into it-and his sufferings were almost more than he could bear. The widow's servants kept him clean and neat, combed and
brushed, and they bedded him nightly in unsympathetic sheets that had not one little spot or stain which he could press to his heart and
know for a friend. He had to eat with a knife and fork; he had to use napkin, cup, and plate; he had to learn his book, he had to go to church;
he had to talk so properly that speech was become insipid in his mouth; whithersoever he turned the bars and shackles of civilization shut
him in and bound him hand and foot.
He bravely bore his miseries three weeks, and then one day turned up missing. For forty-eight hours the widow hunted for him everywhere
in great distress. The public were profoundly concerned; they searched high and low, they dragged the river for his body. Early the third
morning Tom Sawyer wisely went poking among some old empty hogsheads down behind the abandoned slaughter-house, and in one of
them he found the refugee. Huck had slept there; he had just breakfasted upon some stolen odds and ends of food, and was lying off, now,
in comfort, with his pipe. He was unkempt, uncombed, and clad in the same old ruin of rags that had made him picturesque in the days
when he was free and happy. Tom routed him out, told him the trouble he had been causing, and urged him to go home. Huck's face lost its
tranquil content, and took a melancholy cast.
OA. Tom is practical, whereas Huckleberry is a dreamer.
OB. Both Tom and Huckleberry are adjusting to a new lifestyle.
OC. Both Huckleberry and Tom don't want to be trapped by the laws of Chihilized society.
OD Huckleberry Finn is irresponsible, whereas Tom is sensible.
