Sawyer as "stretchers," and when he excuses these stretchers, the careful reader will understand that

a. Huck always tells the truth.

b. Huck never tells the truth.

c. Huck may have an ambivalent attitude toward honesty.

d. Huck only tells the truth when he can profit by it.

Answer 1

d. Huck only tells the truth when he can profit by it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Huck gives a particular thought when he writes in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, giving the reader to understand that the lies that Sawyer said where okay or partially-morally correct when they could be excused and not discovered.

This can´t be considered as a moral retribution because a lie is a lie, even though is harmless.

However, Huck proves in his book that the truth -in his perception- is only viable when you cna profit it, doing option d the correct one.
