The right answer is, D.It affects the tone of the story, which affects how theme is communicated. This isn't incorrect becuase, the word choice the author chooses can make a great change to the story. For example; if you say "That's big.", it has a really different tone of exaggeration from "That's gigantic!". So indeed, diction affects the tone.
