The use of diction contributes to the mood because the playful descriptions of "word warrior" and "gray-haired Mighty Mouse" create a lighthearted mood.

<h3>What is diction?</h3>

In literature, diction refers to the author's choice and use of certain words when describing or explaining something. Diction influences tone and mood in literary works.

<h3>What is mood?</h3>

We call mood in literary works that atmosphere created by authors that make readers feel certain things or a certain way. Mood is influenced by diction, that is, by the words used.

In the excerpt we are analyzing here, the mood is lighthearted as the author uses certain expressions to describe the aunt. Calling someone a "gray-haired Mighty Mouse" is quite a funny way to describe that person.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option D is the correct answer.

HELP PLZZZZ
Serhud [2]

Answer:

A Christian Saint John of the Cross recorded the ´dark night of the soul´ to explain the movement from sin to true virtue.  

Explanation:

In the book, it is written about the toil and tribulation which directs the wrong-doer to a good virtue of the works of the Creator of living, which will eventually direct him on to significant peace.

The nature of the individual who is searching to receive God's courtesy is tried out in the shadows of their own arrogance.

Although that person may carry out righteous acts prior to others and themselves, the sincerity of a person's nature, which God will eventually decide, rests within their inner wanting for a greater spiritual state.

Explanation:

the christian mystic saint john of the cross wrote about the ´dark night of the soul´ to describe the passage from sin towards true righteousness. he writes about the toil and tribulation which leads the sinner towards a greater appreciation of the works of god, which will ultimately lead him on to greater self-peace and fortitude.

before one can strive for the rewards of the blessings of god there must be some sort of test of character which proves that the holy spirit allows the individual to partake in the holiness which is bestowed by god. the progress from an initial state, where the character of the individual is in a raw unworked   form, towards a final end where the person will receive the love of god in a full manifestation, is only brought about through a test of character.

the character of the person who is looking to receive god's grace is tested in the shadows of their own pride. even though that person may perform righteous acts before others and themselves, the truth of a person's character,   which god will ultimately judge, lies within their interior wanting for a higher spiritual state.

the desire for spiritual pleasure is not the same as attaining a higher revelation of god's glory. as such, humility is very important as well as temperance in striving towards the highest light. to contemplate the darkness of our own soul implies a test of character beyond spiritual vice.

oksano4ka [1.4K]
<span>The major theme of "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" is that D. none of the responses.
I believe D is the correct answer because the rest of the options have nothing to do with the poem. The poem is about doing something bad, and then having to live with it, and search for the people who will be willing to listen to your sad story.
