"Diary 33" has a confident and righteous tone. This tone helps the reader understand the personality or the voice of the author: she knows exactly what she's going to do and nothing is going to stop her. When she sees the little girl and the mother, her certainty is shaken. The tone also changes, becoming more unsure and less confident, which makes the reader aware of her moral dilemma. The imagery of the little girl and the crying mother helps the reader see how emotional the moral dilemma is for the author. In "Diary 24," the voice is informal and honest, which encourages the reader to trust the author. The tone ranges from sarcastic to frustrated, and the author addresses the audience as his equal.

Answer:s the United States enters the 21st century, it stands unchallenged as the world’s economic leader, a remarkable turnaround from the 1980s when many Americans had doubts about U.S. “competitiveness.” Productivity growth—the engine of improvement in average living standards—has rebounded from a 25-year slump of a little more than 1 percent a year to roughly 2.5 percent since 1995, a gain few had predicted.
Economic engagement with the rest of the world has played a key part in the U.S. economic revival. Our relatively open borders, which permit most foreign goods to come in with a zero or low tariff, have helped keep inflation in check, allowing the Federal Reserve to let the good times roll without hiking up interest rates as quickly as it might otherwise have done. Indeed, the influx of funds from abroad during the Asian financial crisis kept interest rates low and thereby encouraged a continued boom in investment and consumption, which more than offset any decline in American exports to Asia. Even so, during the 1990s, exports accounted for almost a quarter of the growth of output (though just 12 percent of U.S. gross domestic product at the end of the decade).
Yet as the new century dawns, America’s increasing economic interdependence with the rest of the world, known loosely as “globalization,” has come under attack. Much of the criticism is aimed at two international institutions that the United States helped create and lead: the International Monetary Fund, launched after World War II to provide emergency loans to countries with temporary balance-of-payments problems, and the World Trade Organization, created in 1995 during the last round of world trade negotiations, primarily to help settle trade disputes among countries.
The attacks on both institutions are varied and often inconsistent. But they clearly have taken their toll. For all practical purposes, the IMF is not likely to have its resources augmented any time soon by Congress (and thus by other national governments). Meanwhile, the failure of the WTO meetings in Seattle last December to produce even a roadmap for future trade negotiations—coupled with the protests that soiled the proceedings—has thrown a wrench into plans to reduce remaining barriers to world trade and investment.
For better or worse, it is now up to the United States, as it has been since World War II, to help shape the future of both organizations and arguably the course of the global economy. A broad consensus appears to exist here and elsewhere that governments should strive to improve the stability of the world economy and to advance living standards. But the consensus breaks down over how to do so. As the United States prepares to pick a new president and a new Congress, citizens and policymakers should be asking how best to promote stability and growth in the years ahead.

- Warlords split China into warring kingdoms.
- Nomadic peoples invaded northern China.
Explanation:
Periods of division, chaos and anarchy have alternated with periods of unity and strong imperial , centralized rule in China´s history. The Period of Disunion came after the fall of the Han Dynasty in 220 AD. Is lasted over 350 years until China was reunited again. The old Han empire broke into separate, smaller kingdoms that waged war with each other. On the other hand, Nomadic people - "barbarians" for the Chinese - were always a security threat for the empire, there was a permanent threat of invasion by the northern "barbarians."
