Question 2
Answer: Across the bay, fleets of old fishing boats was seen on the horizon.
Explanation: The subject <em>fleets</em> (plural noun) <em>of old fishing boats </em>mismatches the verb <em>was seen </em>(only for I/he/she/it)
Question 5
Answer: John cried.
Explanation: This sentence is the only one with a subject and a predicate. "Because he wasn't hungry" is a reason clause that must depend on another sentence. "Rebekah drove a race car she won three races" is not a valid sentence unless you place a semicolon after the word "car" to separate the two predicates in it (or a period to make two separate sentences).
Question 10
Answer: I studied
Explanation: The subject "I" is not properly divided from the verb (studied), complement (for the test) and the independent clause joined by the word "but" (but I still didn't pass it).
The description of the windows as empty eyes with a ghostly look creates a dark mood.
Answer:
This lesson deals primarily with diction and tone and how to recognize them in your reading. Diction and tone are stylistic devices a writer uses to help a reader or listener “hear” what the writer is trying to say. Tone describes the author’s attitude toward the material, the audience, or both. According to Cliff’s Advanced Placement English Language and Composition Examination Preparation Guide, tone is similar to mood and is easier to determine in spoken language than in written language. Some words used to describe tone are playful, serious, businesslike, sarcastic, humorous, formal, ornate, and somber.
Tone is largely determined by diction or the word choices a writer makes. The process of choosing the right word involves denotation and connotation, which we will also discuss in this lesson.
Sometimes the tone is very clear, for example, when someone is obviously angry or distressed. To indicate these emotions, the writer might include words like “screaming” or “sobbing” and use exclamation points. Sometimes the tone is more subtle, though, and requires you to read closely in order to fully understand what is happening.
