The Tone is achieved through word choice (diction), sentence construction and word order (syntax), and by what the viewpoint character focuses on. The Tone is created or altered by the way the viewpoint character/narrator treats the story problem and other characters, and by the way, he responds to the events surrounding him.

<span>The theater was a feast for the imagination and for the senses; there were smells, sights, and sounds everywhere.</span>
Assuming
that the essay is the epic poem from around 1000 CE focusing on Beowulf in a third
person narrative:
<span>“A
man would roar, "I'll steal their gold and burn their meadhall!"
shaking his sword as if the tip were afire, and a man with eyes like two pins
would say, "Do it now, Cowface! I think you're not even the man your
father was!" The people would laugh. I would back away into the darkness,
furious at my stupid need to spy on them, and I would glide to the next camp of
men, and I'd hear the same.”</span>
To be really honest, I think its a matter of opinion on which sentence is the strongest conclusion. To me, I think choice C is the best answer because it paints the contrast between the dog's wild instincts versus loyalty. I guess the conclusion should also mention that despite the abuse, Buck still learned to trust a human (even though one could easily understand why the dog would never trust a human after the abuse), so it shows just how powerful loyalty can be.
