The tone you’d most likely use is an engaging/exciting, educational tone if that makes sense. You’d want to use an exciting tone that also has a dramatic tone to it. I’m pretty sure you underline the word “on” in the sentence including “on his return home." Sorry if I’m not correct, I’ve never done this exact question.
Noun or verb
is that what your asking?
If you want to make a past emphatic tense, you need to use the verb DID + the present form of that particular verb. Assuming that the verb you need is TELL, the correct answer here would be did tell.
We did tell you how to find our house.
