Thesauruses are books that list different words with the same meaning (synonyms) or similar meaning. The words are usually listed in alphabetical order.

Answer:
My most uncomfortable moment came as a freshman in high school. I was chosen to go to the regional FFA competition to represent my school in impromptu speaking. This was an enormous task for me to undertake. I was given a binder of information, and three minutes to write an appropriate speech. Then, I had to go to a special room in front of four judges that I didn't know. The speech started with an introduction of myself and my topic, fruits and vegetables. I talked about soil preparation and weed control, and it was the longest three minutes of my life. My knees starting shaking, and I had to grab the podium to hold myself up. The whole podium started shaking, and the judges asked me if I was o.k. It took me a couple of minutes to get started because I dropped my cards, and had to reorganize them. I was sweating like a mad dog, and I then flew threw the speech. I honestly don't know if I stuttered at all, but I lost the competition, and the judges gave me a superior, which is what they give anyone who isn't good enough to win. This is a feel good mercy rating they gave me, but I made it through it and survived.

Explanation:
The part of the excerpt that best demonstrates that the author's purpose is to entertain children with a humorous story is the second one.
We have two animals that speak to each other as if they were people. Both of them could be amusing to children - one is a small fish, and the other is a big hungry whale that can stand on its tail. The story also has a rhythm, which makes the story more dynamic and interesting to children.
