Structural analysis of the text

1. The first-person narration allows the writer to bring her

personal experiences, to express her feelings or insert her own

opinions easily, which are more likely to involve and affect readers. The third-person narration reminds readers to recognize

the events as memories in the remote past so as to arouse a sense

of aging.

2. The first paragraph states that Charles Dickens rendered

an inestimable service to the writer while the last paragraph

states that his influence cannot be lost and became a part of the

writer, echoing that in the first paragraph.
