Interpret - A contrast between what is expected and what actually happens is called irony. Authors who use irony are often adding a humorous touch in expressing their ideas. In the first paragraph, what words and phrases does the author use to show an ironic tone?

Analyze - An author may express more than one kind of tone in a piece of writing. Reread lines 26–32. What word would you use to describe the author’s tone here? What words or phrases contribute to this tone?

Summarize - Reread lines 65–78. How would you summarize the “serious questions” that the author refers to?
