The correct answer is C. Are these positive or negative words?

Explanation:

In texts including literary works such as novels, poems or short stories and non-literary works such as articles or reports, the tone of the author refers to the attitude, belief and even the position of the author towards the subject or topic he or she writes about which can be identified through the use of words that have a favorable or negative connotation and that suggest the way the author feels and thinks about a certain topic. This also implies in texts, this element can be identified by analyzing the type of words used by the author and the type of attitude these represent and therefore the question you can ask to understand the author's tone is "Are these positive or negative words?".

Read this excerpt from Holes. Sarah changed the words of the pig lullaby so that they rhymed, and every night she sang it to lit
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

They parallel Stanley's wish that things had turned out differently for him.

Explanation:

Louis Sachar's "Holes" revolves around the wrongful accusation against the protagonist, Stanley Yelnats who was put in a detention center. And it was in this detention camp that they were made to dig holes all day, without really knowing what they were looking for.

The change in the lyrics sang by Sarah shows the predicament that her great-great-grandson Stanley will be in. Sarah sang the song about the pig stealing Yelnats that began the 'curse' on the family. And the <em>"if only"</em> of the song parallel Stanley's wish for a different outcome of his life.

Thus, the <u>correct answer is the last/ fourth option</u>.
