Question

Which of these help you determine the tone of the text?
a.
the title
c.
guessing how the author would read the text
b.
strong adjectives
d.
none of these

Answer 1

To determine the tone of the text, both **a. the title** and **b. strong adjectives** can be helpful. The title can set the tone or provide context, while strong adjectives often convey emotion and attitude that reflect the author's tone.

**c. guessing how the author would read the text** can also give you an idea of the tone, but it's more subjective and interpretive.

So the best answers are **a**, **b**, and possibly **c**, while **d. none of these** would not be correct since some of the other options do help determine the tone.
