Hello. Unfortunately, you did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try to help you as best I can.

In a generalized way, we can say that the tone of a text refers to the feeling that the author wants to convey to the reader while reading the text. In this case, the author uses specific words that signal a very strong feeling, which must be felt so that the reader understands the text in a complete and sensorial way.

To answer this question, you must read the entire essay and identify which tones the author presents and which tone is established at the end of the essay. As we know, at the end of the essay the author uses the tone to demonstrate an overwhelming feeling, this feeling is so strong because of the use of words that refer to it, you must identify these words so that the question is answered.
