I'm studying for a test that my teacher is giving us on "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" and he gave me a practice sheet to study with. I'm really bad with american literature and was wondering if someone could help me to understand it further. Thanks in advance.

2. Describe one specific incident in which Huck's lying gets him into trouble and explain how his lying creates problems.

3. Describe one specific incident in which Huck's lying gets him out of trouble and explain how it keeps him out of trouble.

Huck is considered an orphan at the beginning of the book but as it goes on he comes to be Jim's son.

When Huck went into town dressed as a girl and the way he acted he almost got himself and Jim caught.

Hucks lying kept him out of troulble when him and jim got picked up by the Grangerfords.
