The use of rhetoric has become an effective way to convey what the author sees, hears and feels.

Edgar snow seems to be deliberately weakening the expression of his feelings, trying to convey the facts with a fair, objective and calm narrative. Facts and conscience make the author consciously choose various emotional metaphors to state facts, which naturally shows the author's tendency and value judgment.
