Question

Explain how Ji-Cai shows the effects of the Cultural Revolution on the landlord's wife, the tall woman, and the short man in "The Tall Woman and her Short Husband." Give an example for each. I'm not looking for a flat out answer, I'd just like help getting to that answer.

Answer 1

In "The Tall Woman and her Short Husband", the effects of the Chinese cultural revolution are quite apparent. With the government's push to unify everyone on the same level, it was encouraged to spy on one's neighbors and report any prohibited activity. That's why Mr. Short is reported for anti-revolutionary activity. After he is imprisoned, Mrs Tall spends a lonely year which causes her to have a stroke and eventually die

Answer 2

In the narrative of "The Tall Woman and her Short Husband", the impacts of the social upheaval were evident. The legislature had a significant job in this in its push to bring together every one of the general population on the equivalent level and urge to keep an eye on their neighbors and to report disallowed exercises. This is the motivation behind why Mr. Short was accounted for of sneaking out the consequences of his examination. Notwithstanding when Mr. Short at last returns home to Mrs. Tall she has a stroke and dies.
