The correct way of matching each statement with the appropriate tone is the following:
* Angry tone: the adjective “annoying” implies the angry tone of the speaker. (A cell phone can be annoying when you forget to turn on the silent feature before going to sleep)
* Accepting tone: the speaker acknowledges the problem with the battery, yet she/he accepts it by carrying a charger as a solution to it. (The problem is that the battery doesn’t last long, but I don’t mind carrying a charger)
* Objective tone: the speaker is objective by stating only facts about the device. (The cell phone makes calling convenient from all possible locations)
* Sentimental tone: the verb “cherish”, and the noun “gift” imply the sentimental tone of the speaker. (I will always cherish my first cell phone because it was a gift from my dad)
* Optimistic tone: the speaker has an optimistic tone, as she/he speaks about a possible future development. (I think we can soon expect a technology that charges phones in seconds)
The correct answer is A.
In his essay, "The Philosophy of Composition," Poe explains that he wanted to have a strong word for the Raven to say. It had to be "sonorous and susceptible of protracted emphasis".
These considerations led him to the conclusion that the word should contain the vowel "o" connected with the consonant "r."
After deciding these characteristics, the first word that came to his mind was "Nevermore."
