Read the excerpt below and answer the question. …I had spoken too sudden, and said too much, and was in a close place. I asked her to let me think a minute…. So I went on studying it out. I says to myself, I reckon a body that ups and tells the truth when he is in a tight place, is taking considerable many resks, though I ain’t had no experience, and can’t say for certain; but it looks so to me, anyways; and yet here’s a case where I’m blest if it don’t look to me like the truth is better, and actuly safer, than a lie…. [I]t’s so kind of strange and unregular. I never see nothing like it. Well, I says to myself at last, I’m agoing to chance it. I’ll up and tell the truth this time, though it does seem most like setting down on a kag of powder and touching it off just to see where you’ll go to.

What prompts Huck to tell the truth in this part of the story?

He wants the reward he will gain from it.
He wants the con artists to get into trouble.
He feels it is the right thing to do.
He feels it is the safest thing to do.

Read the passage first of all if someone says your dream is impossible, they’re wrong. you can’t prove that something is impossible-all you know is that[it] hasn’t been done yet. people said no one could scale mount everest but in 1953, sir edmund hilary and tenzing norway gazed down upon the world from it’s summit. people said that man could not fly, but in 1903, orville and wilbur wright made the first sustained powered flight in a heavier-than-air machine. people said, “okay, we admit that someone could climb mount everest, and we admit that man has learned to fly, but no one will ever, ever walk on the face of the moon.” if we can send three men a quarter of a million miles away and bring them home safely, is there any great task we cannot accomplish? which identifies the textual evidence that best supports the claim: the authors purpose is to persuade? a: the author shares historical information about the wright brothers. b: the author states that men have walked the moon. c: the author states that others who think your dreams are impossible are wrong. d: the author wants to know what tasks we cannot accomplish.
