Read the excerpt below and answer the question. …i had spoken too sudden, and said too much, and was in a close place. i asked her to let me think a minute…. so i went on studying it out. i says to myself, i reckon a body that ups and tells the truth when he is in a tight place, is taking considerable many resks, though i ain’t had no experience, and can’t say for certain; but it looks so to me, anyways; and yet here’s a case where i’m blest if it don’t look to me like the truth is better, and actuly safer, than a lie…. [i]t’s so kind of strange and unregular. i never see nothing like it. well, i says to myself at last, i’m agoing to chance it. i’ll up and tell the truth this time, though it does seem most like setting down on a kag of powder and touching it off just to see where you’ll go to. what prompts huck to tell the truth in this part of the story? he feels it is the right thing to do. he feels it is the safest thing to do. he wants the reward he will gain from it. he wants the con artists to get into trouble.
