Answer:

C). The word "pretending" creates a suspicious tone.

Explanation:

The Tone is described as the author's approach or attitude towards a specific subject matter which offers a perspective to view the content and evokes the desired feeling from them. It is reflected through the words and language and words employed by the author.

In the given excerpt, the use of the word 'pretending' connotes a 'suspicious tone' as it conveys that the speaker is skeptical of her actions. He <u>suspects that if she loves him truly and questions her actions(as reflected in the sentence 'the very minute I go to my bed...runs in the yard')</u>. This helps the readers in viewing the text accordingly and feeling suspicious of the upcoming events in the narrative. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

How much of a problem do you thick in cyber-bullying is?<br>​
just olya [345]

Answer:

A complicated issue

Explanation:

Cyber-bullying is a 4.0 era problem. It doesn't mean that it's insoluble, but it means that many people have not yet adapted to its existence.

Frankly speaking, human, ever since the birth of verbal language, have always had the so-called "joy" of bullying others, in one way or another.

The modern civilisations have taught people to extinguish such awful and fleeting habits, but under different pressures , some still make use of bullying as a means to entertain. Especially with the invention of the Internet and social media, cyber-bullying became popular, as bullies can "enjoy" their anonymity together with bullied's bewilderedness. The main goal of the practice of cyber-bullying is not only to assault the victim verbally, but also to attract attentions and create scandals. If before, bullies would only imagine of humiliating their victims within a certain group , cyber-bullies nowadays are capable of spreading words across the globe, making their victims look like an outcast of the society.

Cyber-bullying is not restricted to a classroom or school campus. It is now a thing even with some elders. Thus, the effect cyber-bullying has on victims is much more severe. Victims realised they are criticized of both those acquaintances and strangers who are completely unaware of their situations. They would be very much intimidated by the idea that there is a probabilty someone would pick them, if they ever go out for just a walk, or go shopping, or even travel to another country. What is worse, they would have to face the downfall of many personal relationships. Friends and family members, those who they love and those who love them, might have a different attitude to them. Cybet-bullied victims, would have to face a great challenge of social loneliness if not offered help.

To resolve the problem of cyber-bullying, well, there is yet to be any powerful solutions. One way to deal with it is through education. Children are vulnerable to factors they meet in life, so it's crucial for parents, classes and society to teach students to refrain from the act of bullying, not only because it causes harm to other people, but also to themselves and their loved ones. Another way is , sadly ,to adapt to the problem. Social media may offer their best to censor toxic contents, but never would it be fast ,or strong enough. Infomation is being spread at a clicked of the mouse, making it almost instantneous for a post to be seen by hundreds of people. We cannot yet to extinguish dark sides in people's mind for now, or very likely in the next centuries, but it does not mean we cannot reinforce our own defences against the negativity. It should be considered an essential skills to learn to ignore the influence of negative criticism.
