to help people focus on becoming miss America
The Chinese government secluded their country from other nations to show its self-sufficiency. It is a condition of not requiring any help or support for survival or it does not trade with other nations. Foreign representatives or diplomats who go to the country were compulsory to bow to the Chinese emperor making him superior.
This question is about the book "Angela's Ashes".
Answer and Explanation:
Humor increases the effectiveness of the text because it makes it lighter and more enjoyable. This is because even in the midst of pathetic situations, as shown in the question above, the book portrays very serious and uncomfortable elements such as hunger, disease, extreme poverty, death and hopelessness. McCourt's use of humps relieves this feeling of discomfort and makes the book more effective, as it can deliver a message.
I believe that I would have liked it less if the humor in the book was homitized, because it would take away that relief and let only all the obscurity of the story and all the discomfort consume me as a reader and leave a heavy, slow and demotivating reading.
