The tone would be determined by the kind of people the author is writing for. A story for children is going to have a different tone than a graduate thesis even if they are on the same topic.
Hope that helps.
Answer:
D. Marlow, back in the city, finds the daily lives and concerns of his fellow citizens to be petty.
Explanation:
Joseph Conrad's "Heart of Darkness" centers around the character of Marlow who had gone to the African continent to meet Kurtz. This whole plot revolves around the occurrences of the journey.
The above passage is from the third part of the book where Marlow had returned back to Europe. He had no clear memory of how he got back but he is also not appreciative of the European people and their worries. He exclaims that this city looks like a tombstone, filled with "<em>people hurrying through the streets to filch a little money from each other, to devour their infamous cookery, to gulp their unwholesome beer, to dream their insignificant and silly dreams</em>". To him, their daily lives and concerns are so petty as compared to the things he had experienced and seen with his very own eyes.
An abstract noun is a noun that you can't feel, hear, taste, smell, and see. Like hope. A concrete noun is a noun that you CAN feel, hear, taste, smell, and see.
So the abstract noun in this sentence is not choir, but harmony.
