Answer:

The line that best describes how the diction supports the tone of this passage is: That's what makes it ours- being born on it, working it, dying on it.

Diction refers to the words and phrases you use when you decide to write. In this context, the words chosen; born on it, working it, dying on it, and ours support pretty much all the other ideas: but it's our land, we measured it and broke it up, not a paper with numbers. You are able perceive the speaker's hopelessness, when reading this line which mainly supports the tone of this passage.
