Question

As you read the paragraph below, think about how each sentence affects the tone of the passage.

The bell rang at 2:16 p.m. Fifty-five students lined up immediately. Summer could not arrive soon enough for any of us. Three buses were outside the school’s front door.

Which sentence makes the tone of the passage more subjective?

Fifty-five students lined up immediately.

Three buses were outside the school’s front door.

Summer could not arrive soon enough for any of us.

The bell rang at 2:16 p.m.

Answer 1

"Summer could not arrive soon enough for any of us."

This sentence expresses feeling and opinion (impatience/desire), whereas the others state objective facts (time, number of students, number of buses).
