How does the relationship between tone and diction differ from the relationship between mood and diction?

English
1 answer:
Aneli [31]2 years ago
6 0

The correct answer is D. Tone is determined by diction, while mood is affected by many things

Explanation:

In literature, the tone refers to the way the author addresses issues or the feelings and attitudes he or she expresses about the main subject matter, because of this, the tone can be mainly identified through the diction that is the words the author choose to express different elements in a literary piece. As a result, tone relies mainly on diction.

On the other hand, the mood refers to the atmosphere the author creates in a literary work and the feeling or emotions this atmosphere causes in the readers. As tone, mood is also influenced by the choice of words or diction, but there are also other elements that contribute to the mood including the setting as a story with a sad or scary mood  takes place in a different setting that one with a cheerful mood; the use of description that provide vivid details to explain the atmosphere; the tone of the author and the use of pauses and similar devices to create rhythm. Consequently, it can be concluded that while the tone is determined by diction, the mood is affected by many things and not only diction.

In which sentence do the subject and verb agree? Nothing taste as good as my dad's five-alarm chili. Most of the group's music a
stich3 [128]

Answer:

The sentence in which the subject and the verb agree is:

Some of Meredith's poems make me laugh.

Explanation:

In English we must pay attention to the subject in order to choose the correct form of the verb that refers to it. If the subject is plural, the verb must be in its plural form. But if it's singular, the verb must be altered in accordance, especially if it is the third person of speech (he, she, or it). Let's take a look at the sentences:

1. Nothing taste as good as my dad's five-alarm chili. --> "taste" refers to "nothing". Since "nothing" is third-person singular, the correct conjugation would be "tastes".

2. Most of the group's music are playing on the radio. --> "are" refers to "most", but "most" refers to "music", which is uncountable. For that reason, "most" needs a singular verb. The correct form would be "is".

3. Several of those coats is on sale this week. --> "is" refers to "several". "Several" implies that there are many of something, and it refers to "coats", which is clearly plural. The correct form would be "are".

4. Some of Meredith's poems make me laugh. --> This is the sentence with the correct subject-verb agreement. "Some" refers to "poems", which is a countable noun in its plural form. Thus, the verb "make" is correct.

uncommonly - adverbial

thrifty - subject complement (adjective)

on its last legs - adverbial

3. Celia is the CEO of a large multinational corporation.

the CEO of a large multinational corporation - subject complement (noun phrase)

4. The last performance of Death of a Salesman was on Friday.

on Friday - adverbial

5. The plumber will be here soon.

like a nice man - subject complement (noun phrase)

2. The inside of the bakery smells delicious.

The inside of the bakery - subject

5. Ms. Yeziersky became a schoolteacher.

Ms. Yeziersky - subject

became - linking verb (past tense)

a schoolteacher - subject complement (noun phrase)

In all examples, we have an equation:

subject = noun phrase (what?)

               adjective (how?)

               adverbial (when? where? how? etc.)

To define if a subject complement is a noun phrase or an adjective, we always think of the main word:

like a nice man (noun phrase because everything modifies the noun MAN)

uncommonly thrifty (<em>uncommonly</em> modifies <em>thrifty</em> so it is an adjective).
