Question

read the quotation from chapter 5 of the adventures of huckleberry finn, in which huck is discussing his father
i had shut the door to. then i turned around and there he was. i used to be scared of him all the time, ... i reckoned i was scared now, too; but in a minute i see i was mistaken—that is, after the first jolt, as you may say, when my breath sort of hitched, he being so unexpected; but right away after i see i warnt scared of him worth bothering about.

based on the excerpt, which is the most reasonable plot prediction?
huck will once again start fearing his father.
huck will confidently face his father
huck will refuse to speak to his father
huck will be forced to make a choice about his father

Explanation:

The excerpt says Huck initially thought he was scared of his father but then realized he "warn't scared of him worth bothering about". This shows he overcame his fear, so the most reasonable prediction is he'll face his father confidently. The other options (fearing again, refusing to speak, forced to choose) don't align with his realization of not being scared.

Answer:

B. Huck will confidently face his father
