The correct answer is C. Formal

Explanation:

In writing, the tone refers to the attitude the way the author of a text shows his or her attitude toward the situation or topic the text is about. This attitude can be identified through the level of formality, the use of words and language by the author and the details that show his point of view. In the text presented, the author describes the importance of respecting the Indian heritage or different heritages of the children that attend the school and the need of understanding the heritage of children is important and should be shared with others especially by emphasizing the situation of his son.

For doing this, the author choice of words (diction) is mainly formal as he appeals to the constitution "a constitutional right to learn, retain, and maintain his heritage and culture" and does not use any colloquial expression; also his opinion is expressed using formal language "I strongly believe that non-Indian children also have a constitutional right to learn..." and in general terms all the text shows the author is not satisfied with the situation but uses language in a sophisticated, objective and formal way to express this. Thus, the tone or attitude of the author can be described as Formal.

How could calibans behavior be interpreted as negative or harmful
Alina [70]

Answer:

Caliban is Prospero's dark, earthy slave. He tried to take Miranda's innocence, and as a result, Prospero imprisoned him and tried to civilize him by teaching him language. Caliban's behavior is harmful as he is completely savage and unable to control his basic drives, such as sexual desire.

He is given the tasks such as carrying the wood, and he always protests and curses. As he points out in Act I, Scene II, <em>'You taught me language, and my profit on't. Is I know how to curse.' </em>Caliban is defiant, full of hatred and discontent, which culminates when he plots against Prospero, together with Stefano and Trinculo.

The Tet Offensive was considered a turning point in media coverage of the Vietnam War. What happened as a result?
Debora [2.8K]

The Tet offensive proved that not only did the Viet Cong have the desire to fight back, but also the ability. It killed many US soldiers and set the war strategies back a bit. This added deeper conflict and dread to American fighters as well as American civilians.

How are the townspeople different from the country people in Maycomb? How long do you think these differences between the town a
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The main difference between the townspeople in Maycomb and the country people is that the latter are more direct in their expressions.  Both are equally prejudiced against the black population. However, townspeople go through the motions of a "fair" trial, even though in spite of the clear evidence of the innocence of Tom Robinson, the jury will still condemn him because he is black), or they will ostracize those with whom they disgree, as they have done to Arthur Radley or to Dolphus Raymond, or else through vicious speech, like cousin Francis or Mrs. Dubose, who criticise Atticus Finch for defending a black man when talking to his children, or Burris Eweller as he insults the schoolteacher. Robert Eweller threatens Helen Robinson as she takes the shorter road to work, and he wishes to take revenge on Atticus Finch by attacking his children. There are exceptions to the prejudiced townspeople, like Atticus Finch and  Miss Maudie, who are cultured and therefore unprejudiced. Unlike most townspeople, country people are direct. The Cunningham child explains that he has failed in school because he must help his father in the field. His father, Arthur Cunningham, takes part in a mob that intends to lynch Tom Robinson at the local jail, but responds also directly, as a human being, when Scout inquires after his son. Later, at court, the Cunningham's make an attempt to obtain acquittal for Tom Robinson.

Maycomb townspeople believe that families have "streaks", so that the children will necessarily inherit the faults of their parents. Also, the white townspeople believe that there is some sort of nobility attached to the antiquity of a family in the town. This is one of the reasons why family names are considered so important. Also, for racist whites, it is important to have no racial mix in their family. Atticus Finch is influential in town because he belongs to one of the wealthiest families there. This makes him respectable in the eyes of the townspeople, even to those who criticize him for defending Tom Robinson.
