Which of these sets of words impact tone in this passage? see passage below
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

D) reading, ideal, implement

Explanation:

The passage talks about the reading culture of a young boy named Randall which was greatly inhibited by the fact that his teachers introduced a lot of old books for them to read, and which he and other students could not really relate to. His perception of what was ideal was a mixture of both old and new books which would create a sort of balance and make reading more enjoyable.

He proposed the idea to his teachers and they promised to implement it. These three keywords: reading, ideal, implement, set the tone of the passage.
