Answer:

It creates a sarcastic tone.

Explanation:

The definition of the word <em>balmy </em>is <em>characterized by pleasantly warm weather.</em> This word is used to describe the minus 20 degrees, which is horribly cold, but still not as cold as Alaska usually is. This combination of words creates a paradox - how can minus 20 degrees be balmy? It is not - the author is just being sarcastic. That's how the use of the word <em>balmy</em> creates a sarcastic tone.

Elodia [21]
<span>After the advent of the printing press, Martin Luther became Europe's best-selling author. His works about the Church and the call for Reformation were very popular at the time, and given that Gutenberg invented the printing press, it was quite easy for him to print huge numbers of copies that people were willing to read. </span>
