2.Injun Joe frightened him.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3 and 4 i think

Explanation:

Answer 2

Tom Sawyer stood alone at the gate spreading the narrative that he is sick to prevent his friends from suspecting that he had an eye for Becky.

Becky's full names are Rebecca Thatcher. She is the daughter of Judge Thatcher.

One of her unique traits is that she wears her blond hair in braids. She had Tom head over heels for her the moment he saw her.

In the 4th page of chapter 12, Tom had waited endlessly at the gate hoping to catch a glimpse of her and win her attention.

Several girls pass by but Tom kept up his pretense about being sick.

Just when he gave up, Becky appears and Tom throws off the pretense, doing everything he can to win her attention.

"The man's cub—the man's cub?" he said. "I speak for the man's cub. There is no harm in a man's cub. I have no gift of words, but I speak the truth. Let him run with the Pack, and be entered with the others. I myself will teach him.”

Read the excerpt from Justice Curtis’s dissenting opinion, then answer the question that follows.

Slavery, being contrary to natural right, is created only by municipal law. This is not only plain in itself, and agreed by all writers on the subject, but is inferable from the Constitution, and has been explicitly declared by this court. The Constitution refers to slaves as “persons held to service in one State, under the laws thereof.” . . . .

. . . It was certainly understood by the Convention which framed the Constitution, and has been so understood ever since, that, under the power to regulate commerce, Congress could prohibit the importation of slaves; and the exercise of the power was restrained till 1808. A citizen of the United States owns slaves in Cuba, and brings them to the United States, where they are set free by the legislation of Congress. Does this legislation deprive him of his property without due process of law? If so, what becomes of the laws prohibiting the slave trade? If not, how can a similar regulation respecting a Territory violate the fifth amendment of the Constitution? . . . .

For these reasons, I am of opinion that so much of the several acts of Congress as prohibited slavery and involuntary servitude within that part of the Territory of Wisconsin . . . were constitutional and valid laws.

“The Constitution refers to slaves as ‘persons held to service in one State’”
“The Convention which framed the Constitution . . . has . . . the power to regulate commerce.”
“A citizen of the United States owns slaves in Cuba.”

3. What archetypes does Irving use in "The Devil and Tom Walker"? Why do you think he
chose to use them?

Answers

Answer:

The archetype for the "The Devil and Tom Walker" would be that of Faust. Washington's story describes the archetypal "deal with the devil" that ends in tragedy.  

It is usually the case that the benefits associated with a Faustian bargain are dwarfed by what is required in return. In the story, Tom Walker makes a deal with Old Scratch: in return for access to the pirate's treasure, he will use his newfound wealth in the Devil's service.  

For his part, Old Scratch demands that Tom engage in what is known as "black traffic" or the slave trade. Tom refuses vehemently but agrees to the Devil's next suggestion: that he works as a money-lender. In due time, Tom becomes extremely wealthy. He revels in his new wealth and position in society. However, he begins to have second thoughts about his bargain with Old Scratch.  

In his old age, Tom begins to feel apprehensive about the next life. So, he begins attending church regularly, and he becomes a dogmatic believer in God. As we learn, Tom's panicked rituals of contrition do little to secure his salvation. The Devil comes for him, sealing the Faustian bargain. So, the archetype for "The Devil and Tom Walker" is the story of Faust, where a "deal with the devil" ends in tragedy.

a. introduce the play's climax.
C. introduce important new characters.
b. expose Macbeth's mounting troubles. d. resolve the play's central conflicts.

Answers

Answer:

The Act III of the Tragedy of Macbeth serves the main purpose of introduction to the play's climax.

What is a climax?

A climax is the one which concludes the story, where the audience finally makes a decision regarding the quality of the play, and in such a way that the story of the play has essentially come to an end.

The Act I of Macbeth shows the acts done by Lady Macbeth to kill Duncan, and the play finally reaches its climax towards the beginning of the Act III of the play.
