Which sentence from mark twain's essay "advice to youth" conveys twain's opinion about why one’s youth is the right time to learn good values?
being told i would be expected to talk here, i inquired what sort of talk i ought to make. they said it should be something suitable to youth--something didactic, instructive, or something in the nature of good advice. very well. i have a few things in my mind which i have often longed to say for the instruction of the young; for it is in one’s tender early years that such things will best take root and be most enduring and most valuable. first, then. i will say to you my young friends--and i say it beseechingly, urgingly-- always obey your parents, when they are present. this is the best policy in the long run, because if you don't, they will make you. most parents think they know better than you do, and you can generally make more by humoring that superstition than you can by acting on your own better judgment. be respectful to your superiors, if you have any, also to strangers, and sometimes to others. if a person offend you, and you are in doubt as to whether it was intentional or not, do not resort to extreme measures; simply watch your chance and hit him with a brick. that will be sufficient. if you shall find that he had not intended any offense, come out frankly and confess yourself in the wrong when you struck him; acknowledge it like a man and say you didn't mean to. yes, always avoid violence; in this age of charity and kindliness, the time has gone by for such things. leave dynamite to the low and unrefined.

in a place once known as north america, now known as panem, is a very rich city surrounded by twelve districts. every year because this very rich city, known as the capitol, is so rich and likes to think they control all the districts - which they do - there is something known as the hunger games! this is where two children, one boy and one girl from each district from the ages of twelve to eighteen, have to leave their families and compete in the hunger games, a live event that is aired on tv's all over panem. when katniss everdeen, aged sixteen from district 12, has to volunteer to take the place of her twelve-year-old sister prim after prim's name is called forth to become the 23rd member to compete in the 74th hunger games, she promises to prim that she will win! katniss doesn't believe she's coming out alive - but she's not going down without a fight.

because district 12 is so poor, katniss has been close to death many times from starvation but she's made it through it. but this is a different kind of close to death; this katniss doesn't know if she can survive.

she doesn't want to hurt, or kill anyone but when it comes down to it katniss' instinct is to survive. but when she starts to have confusing feelings about the boy from her district who is also her fellow contender, things get worse, and then she teams up with the girl from district 11 and only one person can survive. but who will it be? will her feelings get the better of her? will she let someone else win so they don't have to die? if katniss is going to win she's going to have to be brutal. she's going to have to kill!
