Read this excerpt from chapter 1 of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and answer the question. You don’t know about me without you have read a book by the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer; but that ain’t no matter. That book was made by Mr. Twain, and he told the truth, mainly. There was things which he stretched, but mainly he told the truth. That is nothing. I never seen anybody but lied one time or another, without it was Aunt Polly, or the widow, or maybe Mary. Aunt Polly—Tom’s Aunt Polly, she is—and Mary, and the Widow Douglas is all told about in that book, which is mostly a true book, with some stretchers, as I said before.

Which of the following most accurately describes the impact the author creates by directly addressing the reader as a first person narrator?

A)The sincerity of the narrator is highlighted which forewarns the reader that The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn will offer a similar but less shallow characterization of Huck Finn than its predecessor.

B)The narrator creates uncertainty by calling into question the integrity of the main character while making clear that The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is intended as a comedy.

C)The narrator addresses concerns readers may have about the author’s notoriety as a truth-stretcher in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn which suggests that the character of Huck Finn is semi-autobiographical.

D)The limited education of the narrator is made clear with the use of a distinct dialect while encouraging fans of the previous novel to read The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.
