One example of the author keeping a lively tone even while discussing a disease is "The author humanizes the prion with playful language by saying '[i]f it..."

<h3>What is tone?</h3>

In literature, the term tone refers to the way an author or a narrator approaches a certain topic, that is, his attitude towards it. Examples of tone are the following:

  • Authoritative
  • Lively
  • Demanding
  • Humorous
  • Optimistic
  • Negative

The passage we are analyzing here manages to maintain a lively tone even though the author is describing a serious disease that affects cow. The reason why the tone is lively is the fact that the author humanizes the prion with playful language by saying "[i]f it manages to burrow into a corner." This conveys a funny, almost cute image, of how the protein that causes the disease functions.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option D as the correct answer choice for this question.

Read the excerpt from "Elevator Systems of the Eiffel Tower, 1889" by Robert M. Vogel.
trapecia [35]

Answer:

I believe that the answer is C. In the decade following the Civil War, tall buildings had just begun to emerge; and, although the skylines of the world’s great cities were still dominated by church spires, there was increasing activity in the development of elevator apparatus adapted to the transportation of people as well as of merchandise.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because, the whole text is about the elevator and its development throughout the years. This paragraph explains the development of the elevator, its possible purpose, and the time frame in which it took place. This sentence seems to sum up the text better than the other options.

Hope this helps! :)
