Answer:
The literary point of view in "The Rescue Mission" affects the reader's understanding of the story because the story is told in the first person. The character himself tells everything that's happening in the story, including, as he tells, his thoughts, everything that is going through his mind. He is not only describing the scenes and events from a distant point of view, without being necessarily connected to the events; on the contrary, he is at the center of events, and everything told goes through his feelings and impressions before getting to the reader.

The tone of this excerpt from Maureen Daly's famous story "Sixteen" is primarily intimate, but also frank, sentimental, chatty, colloquial, and a little bit impassioned. The narrator is describing, informally and enthusiastically, a casual, but seemingly very cherished, encounter with a boy, and she appears to be very comfortable sharing her intimate feelings with her interlocutor, judging by some of her expressions - "don't be silly, I told you before, I get around," "Don't you see? This was different," or "It was all so lovely."    
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer:

To make up my history
Explanation:
The word "striking" means something remarkable, memorable and that had a strong impact in a given situation. The narrator of the text uses this word to refer to remarkable, impacting, minutable and significant moments that happened in his life, to the point of "making my story" as he says. The sentence "make my story" is what reinforces the meaning of "striking" within this context.
