Tone, as you may know, is the general attitude an author takes in the construction of a story, essay, poem, etc. that can be determined by the author's choice of words.  When we look at the essay, "Murmurs," by K.C. Cole, we see slang/informality in the author's word choice in the following sentence from the essay: "Because there's scientific gold in them there sinusoidal hills."  Additionally, there are many analogies and similes the author uses in the explanation of concepts such as when the author writes "Like children going after cookies the patterns of sloshing particles left their sticky fingerprints all over the sky."  As such, one way to describe the author's tone would be informal (almost playful/humorous) yet informative.

Use of the second person (the pronoun “you”), over the first and third person, is a technique that an author will use in order to better interact with readers and engage them.  When one reads the pronoun “you,” one will generally feel as if the author or writer of a text is speaking directly to him or her.  This will, most evidently, draw readers into what they are reading because the message will seem more personal with the use of second person than with first or third.  With that in mind, of the possible responses for this question, “A. It pulls the reader into the text,” seems to be the most appropriate.
