She said all a body would have to do there was to go around all day long with a harp and sing, forever and ever. So I didn't think much of it. But I never said so. I asked her if she reckoned Tom Sawyer would go there, and she said not by a considerable sight. I was glad about that, because I wanted him and me to be together.

The excerpt best illustrates the theme:

2. friendship and loyalty

Explanation:

"The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" is a novel by Mark Twain narrated by the main character, Huck Finn. Huck is a boy who has an abusive father. In the story, he meets Jim, a slave who has escaped, and together they run away.

In the excerpt we are analyzing here, Huck has just learned about Heaven. He is not attracted by the idea of a calm place where people just "go around all day long with a harp and sing." But what really makes Heaven undesirable is the fact that, according to Miss Watson, Huck's best friend Tom Sawyer will not go to Heaven. Tom is relieved, because he wants the two of them to be together. In other words, Huck does not think he will go to Heaven, but that is okay if Tom is not going there as well. He is loyal to his friend, so he would rather be with him. Thus, we can tell the excerpt develops the theme of friendship and loyalty.

read this excerpt from “incidents in the life of a slave girl.”

i went about my evening work with trembling steps. mr. flint twice called from his chamber door to inquire why the house was not locked up. i replied that i had not done my work. "you have had time enough to do it," said he. "take care how you answer me! "

i shut all the windows, locked all the doors, and went up to the third story, to wait till midnight. how long those hours seemed, and how fervently i prayed that god would not forsake me in this hour of utmost need! i was about to risk everything on the throw of a die; and if i failed, o what would become of me and my poor children? they would be made to suffer for my fault.

at half past twelve i stole softly down stairs. i stopped on the second floor, thinking i heard a noise. i felt my way down into the parlor, and looked out of the window. the night was so intensely dark that i could see nothing. i raised the window very softly and jumped out. large drops of rain were falling, and the darkness bewildered me. i dropped on my knees, and breathed a short prayer to god for guidance and protection. i groped my way to the road, and rushed towards the town with almost lightning speed.
