    someone help with huckleberry finn questions plz!

    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.

    1. Huckleberry Finn is considered an orphan. During his adventures, he encounters numerous examples of families and living situations both on the Mississippi River and on shore.Which living situation or family does he like best? (Where does he feel most a part of a family?)

    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.
    "Love is long-suffering and kind. Love is not jealous, it does not brag, does not get puffed up, does not behave indecently, does not look for its own interests, does not become provoked. It does not keep account of the injury. It does not rejoice over unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. (1 Corinthians 13:4-7)

    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.
