Each excerpt from the passage has been matched with the tone It conveys as follows:

  • Shaw was a drama critic for the Saturday  Review from 1859-98. Informative
  • "Progress is impossible without change,  and those who cannot change their minds  cannot change anything." Opinion-based
  • Shaw was awarded the Nobel Prize for  Literature in 1925. Informative
  • Shaw's style of writing became so  popular that his plays actually came to  be termed as "Shavian comedies." Informative
  • "His ideas were those of a somewhat  abstract logical radicalism; hence they  were far from new, but they received  from him a new definiteness and  brilliance..." Critical

The tone of a text is the feeling the reader has because of the word choices in the text.

An informative tone is sensed when the writer simply provides information about a subject. An opinion-based text is one that states the views of the writer.

A critical tone is sensed when one judges a text or passage. Given this understanding, the excerpts have been correctly matched.

Select the correct answer.
kotegsom [21]

The answer is D. The cow stood in udder amazement when she was unable to produce milk.

The reason is that puns usually use a play of words to make the statement sound funny or ironic. The word may have a double meaning, like in this example. For example, they replaced the word "utter" with "udder", which sound similar.
