Tony is writing a letter to his state senator to persuade her to support stricter safety regulations on school buses. Which best
describes the tone Tony should use in his letter? A. passionate and emotional B. enthusiastic and aggressive C. objective and respectful D. casual and matter-of-fact
As per the given description, Tony must employ an 'objective a respectful tone' while drafting the letter to his Senator as tone(approach or attitude of the author towards a particular subject matter) determines the way the receiver would perceive the message. An objective tone would provide the Senator with a reflection that Tony's idea is factual, logical and unbiased(as objective approach excludes personal opinions or remarks) and 'respectful' tone would help persuade the Senator to accept his proposal and captivate his support to promote the idea of 'stricter safety regulations on school buses'. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
