Sam expresses to the speaker ("Cap") his dread of being interred in a cold cemetery and demands that Cap commit to having his body cremated once he passes away.

In this poem, Service tells the tale of Tennessee native Sam McGee, who perished in the frigid north pole. This is a tale about one's lust and how it can ruin one's life. The title character became so obsessed with riches that he lost sight of the world around him.

He eventually passed away while looking for gold. The poem's narrator discusses Sam's life story and his dying wish to be cremated. He loathed being buried beneath the bitter polar ice. He requested that the speaker cremate him because of this. As a result, the entire poem is written in iambic octameter. There are a few differences in this poem, though.

These statements each express different tones. Match each statement with the appropriate tone.
SCORPION-xisa [38]

The correct way of matching each statement with the appropriate tone is the following:

* Angry tone: the adjective “annoying” implies the angry tone of the speaker. (A cell phone can be annoying when you forget to turn on the silent feature before going to sleep)

* Accepting tone: the speaker acknowledges the problem with the battery, yet she/he accepts it by carrying a charger as a solution to it. (The problem is that the battery doesn’t last long, but I don’t mind carrying a charger)

* Objective tone: the speaker is objective by stating only facts about the device. (The cell phone makes calling convenient from all possible locations)

* Sentimental tone: the verb “cherish”, and the noun “gift” imply the sentimental tone of the speaker. (I will always cherish my first cell phone because it was a gift from my dad)

* Optimistic tone: the speaker has an optimistic tone, as she/he speaks about a possible future development. (I think we can soon expect a technology that charges phones in seconds)
