Answer 1

Answer: C) Whereas the successful prosecution of the war requires necessary protection against dangerous Japanese spies and against their sabotage to vulnerable national-defense material, national-defense premises, and national-defense utilities. . . .

Explanation: The tone of a text is the attitude of the author towards the audience, the subject of the text or the characters. We can say that a text has a subjective tone, when the author expresses his own, partialized opinion in the text. In this case, the revision of the excerpt that has a subjective tone is the one corresponding to option C, because it says "dangerous Japanese spies" and "vulnerable national-defense material" which are both signs of a partialized opinion.
