Question

Below is an excerpt. What sort of tone would you use if you were to read it aloud to the class? Serious or lighthearted?

Why?
One of the deadliest animals in the ocean is an octopus no bigger than a golf ball-the blue-ringed octopus of the
southern Pacific Ocean. Although it feeds off small crabs, shrimp and wounded fish, it has neuromuscular paralyzing
venom powerful enough to kill an adult human with just one little nibble.

Answer 1

I would use a casual tone of voice because the excerpt was about the deadliest animals in the world. So, Serious.
