Two adjectives that could be used to describe Charles Dickens' literary works are "satirical" and "realistic". Dickens was known for his use of satire in his writing, using humor and exaggeration to expose the flaws and injustices of society. He often used his characters and storylines to critique the social and political issues of his time, such as poverty, inequality, and corruption. His works also often depicted the harsh realities of life in 19th-century England, giving voice to the struggles and hardships faced by the working class and the poor. This realism, combined with his sharp wit and social commentary, makes Dickens' literary works both thought-provoking and entertaining.

In the novel "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" by Mark Twain, there is no character named Adolphus. The story primarily follows the journey of Huck Finn, a young boy, and his companion Jim, an escaped slave, as they travel down the Mississippi River.

Ultimately, Twain gains a greater appreciation for the challenges and rewards of the profession.

Edwards believes that Tom's natural charm and adaptability will ensure a convincing portrayal that will captivate the audience.

The tone of "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" by Mark Twain is humorous and satirical. Twain uses irony and exaggeration to poke fun at human nature and small-town life.
