Answer:
A). The first passage tells the story of the Kiowa people to achieve instructional tone, but the second passage uses personal experience to achieve a reflective tone.
Explanation:
The tone is characterized as the approach or attitude that an author follows towards a particular subject matter which is mirrored by his/her word choice.
As per the question, the first statement most appropriately establishes a comparison between the tones in both the excerpts as it correctly states that <u>the former passage is relating a story about Kiowa people to attain an</u> instructional tone that allows the readers in perceiving the mood of the story and understand it effectively. While the latter passage denotes personal experiences to develop a reflective tone to indirectly imply the meaning and assists the readers in understanding his point of view. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
They ask the priest to sprinkle holy water on the grave so the old man’s spirit will make it rain.
When the priest is asked to home to the burial with the holy water, the priest initially refuses since the family did not ask him to say the funeral rites or have Mass. Leon, who comes to get the priest says, "we just want him to have plenty of water." Then the last line of the story says, "he was happy about the sprinkling of the holy water; now the old man could send them big thunderclouds for sure." From this we can infer that the people expect Teofilo to make it rain now that he has died. This also connects with the title of the story.
