Answer:

C. "Hain't we got all the fools in town on our side? And ain't that a big enough majority in any town?"

Explanation:

Mark Twain's children adventure novel "<em>The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn</em>" tells the adventures of a young boy named Huck Finn. He was looking for adventure and freedom, which he thinks he got when he set out on his own along with a black slave Jim, and then accumulating friend/ companions on the way.

The duke and the king are two impostors who had been cheating unwitting people out of their things and money. Their attitude towards the people can be best seen in the lines from Chapter 26 where they were in a town and fooling the townspeople into buying their wares. The reality was those things they were selling were not theirs but rather the property of the orphanage. The lines "Hain't we got all the fools in town on our side? And ain't that a big enough majority in any town?" shows just how they think the people may be foolish enough for them.<em> They were selling and robbing the orphans from their only possession, including the house</em>. This shows how they (the king and duke) were unsympathetic towards even the orphans, thinking only for their own profit.

First and foremost, supervisors have the ability to teach the job you will be doing.  This is so because, in order for a supervisor to provide good supervision in regard to determine whether those being supervised are performing well their jobs, supervisors will need to know how to perform the job themselves.   As such, because the will have most likely done the job well themselves in order to achieve a supervisory position, they would certainly have the ability to teach it to you.

Describe Mark Twain's writing style in this selection.In a chart like the one below give examples of the word choices and use of
taurus [48]

Answer:

Mark Twain's observations in his writings made him an undisputed, and for many insurmountable, master of the art of irony.

With a popular and humorous style, Mark Twain contrasts in his works the idealized world of childhood, innocent and at the same time rogue, with a disenchanted conception of the adult man. In his later works, however, the sense of humor gives way to pessimism and bitterness expressed with irony and sarcasm.

Explanation:

<u>Some examples of his ironic style are the following: </u>

"It is stated that German wine is distinguished from vinegar solely by label."

"The new fashion philosophers declare that it is urgent to buy land because it is no longer being manufactured and it is very necessary."

"The new thinkers pose the great need of women for humans because without them there would be very few inhabitants of the earth."

"I, Mark Twain, assure you that if you ban me from smoking in heaven I will retire from there."

 

"I think if you could cross the human with the cat, it would improve while the human would decay."

"Building walls around a cemetery is a useless expense because those who are inside do not want to leave and those who are outside do not want to enter."

 

"When I die, I will choose paradise for the weather and hell for good company."
