It builds suspense in the story, as each of Mitty's fantasies places him in more and more danger in reality.

It injects tension in the story, as readers wait to see whether Mitty's wife will realize that her husband is unhappy.

It adds humor to the story, since Mitty acts out all of his fantasies among people who have no idea what he's doing.

Answer:

It creates sympathy for Mitty since readers recognize that his fantasies show how he'd like to be, not how he actually is.

Explanation:

"The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" that tells the story of Mitty, who is a man who disconnects himself from the reality in which he lives, constantly, and finds himself trapped in heroic daydreams totally outside the reality in which he is inserted. Although this is not valued by the characters in the book, it does create an empathy between the bed and Mitty. This is because the reader understands that Mitty's daydreams are a reflection of his dissatisfaction with the real world, thus, the daydreams he presents, are a vision of what he wanted to be.
