Answer:

Cautionary and advocative

Explanation:

The tone that Thoreau adopts in paragraph 12 is a cautionary and advocative one. In this paragraph, Thoreau discusses the process of voting, and how this impacts regular citizens. He tells us that citizens who are intelligent and honest matter as much as people who do not have these qualities when it comes to voting. He argues that this is an inefficient system, and that people who participate in it are acting in an unjust manner. This supports the idea he advocates throughout the text: that individual people deserve more input in politics.

3. write what happened immediately after the earthquake.

4. write what happened that will leave everybody in a bad situation for a long time, e.g they didn't have houses, hospitals collapsed etc.

5. write what was going on to help and when they helped.

6.write if people recovered from the shock.

7. write about how many lives were in danger or lost- maybe some may even be missing.

8. write about that place now- if the place is better from the earthquake, then write about how it will leave the people in devastation.

Hope this helps!
