The Cold Equations: Our time is up. I told Gerry I had to go. Her voice broke mid-sentence, almost crying. (Did I do good, I hope so have a good one!)
This is true. The general theory regarding personality development is that some aspects of our personality remain constant, while others will change due to environment. This entails a mixture of "nurture and nature" with regard to personality.
Tone can be best described as as yelling, screaming, or any kind of noise.
For instence, if I were yelling while watching the Super Bowl, that would be a tone.
Hope my example and answer helps!
