Read the passage from "The Crab That Played with the Sea.” "‘You are lazy,’ said the Eldest Magician. ‘So your children shall be

lazy. They shall be the laziest people in the world. They shall be called the Malazy—the lazy people;’ and he held up his finger to the Moon and said, ‘O Fisherman, here is the Man too lazy to row home. Pull his canoe home with your line, Fisherman.’" How does repetition affect the narrator's tone? Repetition of the word lazy makes the tone angry. Repetition of the word lazy makes the tone humorous. Repetition of the word Fisherman makes the tone playful. Repetition of the word Fisherman makes the tone serious.

The fact that the magician repeats the word "lazy" so much <em>should give the story a humorous tone</em>. He even names Man's children in a humorous way "<u>the Malazy</u>". We can even assume he was <u>wordplaying with Malaysia</u>, the country. This supports the idea that the <em>Eldest Magician had a really good sense of humour. </em>

In the light of this, the correct answer is "Repetition of the word lazy makes the tone humorous".

Helga [31]

Answer:

yes, the way I act on social media and the way I act in person is very different because in social media there is no physical contact with the person ( nither of us can see each other ) because of that not only me many other people act very frank on social media but in reality where there's physical contact I'm not as frank as I am in social media cause everything I say counts and we just cannot unsent it or delete the words we have said.
