First, I am a bit confused on the article. In the beginning it starts out easy and simple, but then it goes on about the way people write in their books to president, which I find that it makes no sense.
In the beginning it talks about how the swan has the most beautiful voice in the world because it was happy, but it lost its voice, which I didn't catch what it said.
Anyways the point is how the author is using what he is writing, but I don't understand what it is saying either, so I was wondering if you can help me explain to me what it is trying to say?
Also, what is the author techniques? For example, how does the author describe the way he do? What makes it good and how does he say it? What makes it important?
Any help would be great!
