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.
