After school, two friends, Amy and Samantha, are waiting for the bus on the sidewalk. The sky is cloudy gray, and the smell of rain is in the air.  

Samantha looked up at the sky and muttered to Amy gloomily, “Darn, it looks like it’s going to rain today. Do you think this means the football game is going to be canceled?”  

“Why does it matter to you? You weren’t even going to go, Sam! You hate football,” Amy replied curiously.

“That may be true, but my math tutor was going to the game,” she replied deviously. “No tutor, no math homework.”

“Oh gosh Sam. I thought maybe you actually had some school spirit for once, but no ,you were just avoiding homework. Why doesn't this surprise me?” Amy ranted.

“I don’t hate school that much,” Samantha protested

“Yes you do!”

“Maybe a little.”

“Just a little?”

“Okay, a lot.”

Amy turned to face her with mock seriousness, “Do you know how important math is?”

“Finding the circumference of a circle cannot be that important!” Samantha said in exasperation.

“Math,” Amy announced dramatically, “is the royalty of school subjects. Math homework, rises above all other homework.”

Down with the queen, Samantha thought to herself as the bus pulled around the corner.

Highlight clues that signal the reader should change tone.
Talja [164]

The clues that signal the reader should change tone are the punctuation marks, the grammatical signs. For example, the quotation marks at the beginning of something someone else said literally or the exclamation marks.

The tone of the first line of dialogue until "Gettysburg" is a kind tone, a tone of advise. The narrator is trying to help the other person in doing something he or she obviously is finding hard to do by giving a piece of advise and bringing up a memory of a successful similar case.

The clue that helps the reader understand how to read the word "bang" is the exclamation mark. It gives the word a surprise tone, a strong accent.

The best tone for reading the word "bang" is an exciting tone, a surprise one, even a loud one.

The words that should be read with a formal tone are the ones that give factual information. The sentence: Mister Lincoln couldn't think of anything to say at the Gettysburg" gives information about an event and it needs to be read formally, also, when the narrator wants to transmit calmness, a formal and slow tone is needed, because people also transmit messages with the vibrations of our voices and tones.

Answer: A

Explanation:

An idiom is a figurative writing technique that usually uses the metaphor of completing a certain literal process. This hence prescribes a certain type of attitude to the individual in question. The idiom is 'willing to work from the ground up', Leroy in this case likely wont be physically building something from the ground up. But instead he will be metaphorically approaching the task at hand and is willing to put in all the hard work necessary to learn everything he can.
