The passages are most alike in the following ways:
1. **in their employment of a critical tone** - Both passages address their subjects with a critical perspective, analyzing issues and raising concerns.
2. **in their structure as essays** - Both passages are structured as essays, presenting arguments and reflections on their respective topics.
The options about focus on the effects of technology and use of first-person point of view do not align as well. Thoreau's work does not focus on technology, and while Belli's essay may use first-person, Thoreau's is more of a reflective argument without a strong emphasis on personal narrative.
