Question

Listen to the section of the Audio

at 0:05-0:11 (lines 2-3 of the poem).
The audio reader alters his pitch for each
reading of the word "love." Which BEST
states the effect of this choice?
It adds a teasing tone about the idea that
love can change
It soothes those who have doubts about love.
It adds humor to the poem's message.
It emphasizes the poem's first-person point
of view.

Answer 1

I think it’s the last one. I’m not sure since I don’t know what it really sounds like, but it seems it would be coming from someone one has strong opinions about love.

Answer 2

I believe the answer is the first one: It adds a teasing tone about the idea that love can change.

I have not heard the audio, and would really like some elaboration about the subject.

If this is incorrect, please don't refrain to tell me. If you happen to add a comment about what the audio reader is saying, I can edit this answer. Thank you.
