Read the excerpt from Irving’s "The Mysterious Stranger." His eyes rolled upwards, until nothing but the whites were visible; hi

s hands were clasped together, until the fingers were deeply imprinted in the flesh. When the music expressed the dying agony, his face gradually sunk upon his knees; and at the touching words resounding through the church, “Jesu mori,” sobs burst from him uncontrolled. Which statement best describes Irving’s tone in the excerpt?

The first sentence of "The Mysterious Stranger" showed his tone very well: "His eyes rolled upwards, until nothing but the whites were visible; his hands were clasped together, until the fingers were deeply imprinted in the flesh" When the story says that "his eyes rolled upwards, until nothing but the whites were visible", that indicates that he is very stressed and upset about something serious. Then it says "his hands were clasped together, until the fingers were deeply imprinted in the flesh", now this indicated that he is very stressed and worried about something. So the tone of the excerpt would be stressed.

Answer:

  • His melancholy tone highlights the despair of the excerpt.

Explanation:

In this excerpt from Irving's "The Mysterious Stranger" the tone is furious and despairing.

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Deductive argument.

Explanation:

A deductive argument can be defined as a type of argument that begins with a factual statement to draw a conclusion. It is a factual and logical reasoning. This argument states that if the premises are true that the conclusion drawn must be true as well.

It applies a 'top-bottom' principle which means that first general statements are made then these statements are narrowed to reach the conclusion.

<u>In the given statement, two premises are stated either Jack can enroll in full-time school or buy a car. Then the statement got narrowed when he thought to enroll in a full-time school than buying a car. Then the conclusion drawn was that he had to put off buying the car</u>.

So, the correct answer is deductive reasoning.
