How does the tone shift when Diana Moon Glampers shows up?.

English

Tatiana [17]3 years ago

The tone shift in "Harrison Bergeron" after the Handicapper General Diana Moon Glampers shows up can be described in the following manner after due analysis:

The passage begins with an appreciative and admiring tone, but shifts to one of shock and sadness.

<h3>When does Diana appear?</h3><h3>Diana Moon Glampers appears when the main character, Harrison, is dancing with a ballerina in front of cameras. Diana is the Handicapper General. She is responsible for forcing people to wear handicaps in order to make everyone equal/average.</h3>

When the author describes the dance, he uses a tone of admiration and appreciation. Phrases such as "They leaped like deer on the moon," and "neutralizing gravity with love and pure will" convey the beauty and grace of the spectacle.

However, once Diana appears, the tone shifts drastically to one of shock and sadness. "It was then that Diana Moon Glampers, the Handicapper General, came into the studio with a double-barreled ten-gauge shotgun. She fired twice, and the Emperor and the Empress were dead before they hit the floor.

The tone becomes more direct, the descriptions are short, and the image sad. Harrison and the ballerina are killed on live TV. The purpose here is to show how an oppressive government will use violence to stop people from rebelling.

What does "but his peers are hoping their act of kindness will change his mind" mean in the sentence?
Amanda [17]
This sentence means a character had decided upon a certain action for a problem in their head. however other characters (the peers in this example) bestowed an act of kindness or "did something nice" for this other characters in hopes that he/she would change their mind. A good example would be if you upset your parent by acting up and they said no to a sleepover. you would do chores or act kindly towards them in order to try to get them to change their mind and say yes.
