Assertion Analysis #1

The article started off with a more serious mood for the first sentence and throughout the rest of the passage he alternates between being proper and sarcastic tones. I believe that he tries to imply his sarcasm to emphasized the rest of the passage . Towards the beginning of the passages, he explains "lady and gentleman" which could possible lead to him speaking specifically to certain people. Through context the story explains ,"my parents sacrificed so much for this dream " you can assume it may be his parents .

That story shows a struggle or an obstacle that had to be overcome and further on. He also says " that is why we must journey on"  which further proves my claim. There is a shift in Greens' tone when he starts using exclamation marks, as if he was preaching to the two people he was talking to. However, the tone Green portrays mainly is praising his parents for having this dream to fufill. They wanted their son to live the American Dream.
