Amir is likely analyzing the section of the article that discusses the construction and condition of the tank that held the molasses. By focusing on the adjectives "shoddy" and "unsafe," he is examining the language used by the author to convey a sense of negligence or danger surrounding the tank. This part of the text helps Amir understand the author's purpose, which may be to highlight the inadequacies and failures of safety measures, emphasize the disaster's preventability, or criticize the authorities responsible for the tank's construction and maintenance. Analyzing this specific language can reveal the author's intent to evoke a sense of urgency, caution, or outrage regarding the events surrounding the Great Molasses Flood.
