The formal language that Orson Welles used in the "prank" radio broadcast drama about the Earth being taken over by Martians can be seen in the following quotes:

There are aliens dropping from space and many people are running and there is a great cloud of smoke that is emitted by the giant Martian "war machines" and "dropping like flies". [abriged]

<h3>What is Formal Language?</h3>

This refers to the type of language that is used to communicate to people in an official manner.

Hence, we can see that the "prank" radio broadcast drama about the Earth being taken over by Martians was actually an adaptation of H. G. Wells's novel <em>The War of the Worlds</em> (1898).

This led to widespread panic by many listeners who did not know that this was, in fact, a drama adaptation being re-enacted on the radio.

Read the excerpt from “I Hear American Singing.”
GalinKa [24]
Answer: By beginning each line with a type of worker

Explanation: You can eliminate answer choice A, because the first line of the excerpt begins with “those,” while the other sentences begin with “the.” Answer choice B cannot be valid because Whitman lists the type of worker at the beginning of such line, as opposed to the end. Answer choice D can easily be eliminated because each line ends with a different word, and none are the same. Therefore, you are left with answer choice C, which is clearly the correct answer, as mechanics, carpenters, masons, and boatman are all brought up within the first three words of each sentence.
