In what way can sentence structure affect the tone of a written work

There is typically more than one way to communicate an idea with regard to sentence structure, and how the sentence is structured contributes to its tone. For instance, short/brief sentences can contribute to a sense of hurry or haste. For instance let’s look at the following sentences:

I was late. I quickly ate. I brushed my teeth. I forgot to comb my hair. Then, I was out the door.

Can you feel the tone of urgency communicated by the short sentences?

Likewise, long and drawn out sentences can provide the tone of sluggishness and/or unwillingness. This is something to keep in mind when constructing your own sentences—as you are writing always be aware of your sentence structure and the tone it may communicating.

Answer:

Hi!

The answer to your question is that short sentences get to the point and can seem more honest.

Explanation:

Writers have to be careful with the tone they use for their work as the tone will affect how readers perceive the piece.

By using short, direct sentences, writers look to sound more direct, straight forward, and therefore, honest.

just olya [345]

Answer:

The inequality representing the chance of rain is r less-than 25 percent

4.5% is a solution to the inequality

24% is a solution to the inequality

Explanation:

Inequality is simply a statement that one value isn't equal to another:

a ≠ b (this is a symbol for not equal).

This can be also expressed using other words, such as:

a less than b (a < b)

a less or equal to b (a ⩽ b)

a greater than b (a > b)

a greater or equal to b (a ≥ b)

In this case, we have the chance of rain, r, is less than 25%, which means that:

r < 25%

Solution to this inequality is any value less than 25 and since we're dealing with chance of something, than the solution is any number from 0 to 25 (not including 25).

1. This story is an epic. Which statement is true about epics? A. They are stories that took place a long time ago. B. ALL epics
suter [353]

Answer:

A. They are stories that took place a long time ago.

Explanation:

Epics are generally narratives, poems, or any tale about a historical or allegorical character or event from the past. This means that epics are about things, persons, or events from the past.

Epics also have a character that is extraordinarily strong and a hero of unbelievable stature. They may even be depicted with godly features and divine powers, unlike normal human beings. Epics also present these heroes to be on a journey with obstacles that they have to encounter to get to their destination.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

Semenov [28]
You would use a comma. The semi colon acts when both what is in front and behind it can stand alone as a sentence. “With technology in the hands of so many people” does not make sense standing alone.
