Read these sentences from the excerpt: An independent pipeline attempted to bring it to Pittsburgh, but to reach the works the p

ipeline must run under a branch of the Pennsylvania railroad. It refused to permit this, and for months the oil from the line was hauled in wagons from the point where it had been held up, over the railroad track, and there re-piped and carried to Pittsburgh. How does the language in these two sentences affect their tone?
1) The phrase "hauled in wagons" conveys an admiring tone.


2) The phrase "under a branch of the Pennsylvania railroad" conveys a scientific tone.


3) The words "re-piped" and "carried" convey an old-fashioned tone.


4) The words "refused to" and "held up" convey a disapproving tone.

Answer:

The language in these two sentences affects their tone because the words "refused to" and "held up" convey a disapproving tone.

Explanation:

The excerpt mentions in its lines that the project itself was not approved, and it gives the information in that mood, besides the words "refuse to" and "held up" are denial verbs that reinforce the same tone of disapproval in the sentences, the other options are not correct because they do not have any supporting elements so say they express a different tone.

<span>4) The words "refused to" and "held up" convey a disapproving tone.

I believe this would be correct. There is no admiration ot old-fashioned tones in the passage. 2 is an unlikely tone</span>
