Review the scenario.
You are trying to convince an audience that forks and spoons should be outlawed in favor of sporks. Your argument is that sporks reduce waste and are more efficient eating utensils.

Which tone would be most effective in convincing the reader to adopt this position?



Use a tone of anger when describing the history of forks and spoons in America.

Use a tone of frustration when describing how difficult it is to eat with forks and spoons.

Use a tone of peace and contentment when describing the waste produced by discarded forks and spoons.

Use a tone of irritation towards those who have already adopted sporks as their main eating utensil.

It is not either of the last two options because they would both have the opposite effect on your audience then you would want them to have. So out of the first two choices, I think Using a tone of frustration when describing how difficult it is to eat with forks and spoons would help you relate to the audience the best, making your argument the most compelling. Choice B is what I would go with.
