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.

We can infer the boys have more knowledge than Douglass and are willing to teach him.

Frederick Douglass was born in 1818. He was an abolitionist, a writer, and a social reformer whose autobiography "The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass" greatly influenced the abolitionist movement in 1845.

Douglass' story shows how white slave owners perpetuate slavery by keeping their slaves in ignorance. At the time Douglass wrote, many people believed that slavery was a natural state of being.

Hence, the correct answer is 'they have more education than Douglass and are willing to teach him.'

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

1. You do not have to drive me to the airport.

2. I'm looking forward to spending the weekend on my grandpa's farm.

3. She may be having a bath now.

4. If you had listened to me, you wouldn't have gotten into trouble.

5. Take a compass with you in case you get lost.

6. They must have reached an agreement.

7. Can you take care of the baby while I'm at the supermarket?

8. My parents want me to study abroad.

9. She went to the competition, but didn't win.

10. I don't mind lending you my earrings.

Explanation:

This type of question does not have a single explanation. It will vary according to what each sentence requires. What is most important is to know synonyms or similar expressions, as well as understanding some grammar rules.

For instance, "take care" and "look after" are synonyms. The same goes for "can't wait" and "look forward to", in certain contexts. When you say you don't mind doing something, it means it is ok for you to do it.

It is important to know how to use the modal verbs - can, may,might, and must - especially in the past, when they are accompanied by "have" and a participle.
