Do we really want to go to a school that forces us to walk

through a metal detector every day or where the
administration is allowed to search our bags or lockers
whenever they want? What is this, a prison or a school?
know the administration is concerned about our safety and
that recent incidents at our school have made them feel
that metal detectors and surprise searches are the only
ways to keep us safe. But is giving up our right to privacy a
good alternative? I personally don't feel any safer walking
through a metal detector on my way to first period. I think
there are other ways to keep us safe while at the same
time respecting our right to privacy.
Which phrase best describes the tone of this example?
O
A. Sad and very remorseful
B. Friendly and open-minded
O
C. Angry but a little jealous
O
D. Civil but a little marcastic

Answer:

The phrase that best describes the tone of this example is Civil but a little sarcastic

Step-by-step explanation:

This excerpt shows the position of a student towards the security alternative of having metal detectors at schools, most of the excerpt has a civil tone where the person shows the understanding about the serious insecurity they are passing through but we can also see a bit of sarcasm in the question: What is this, a prison or a school?
