Question 13 of 24

Which word best describes the tone of a speech rather than its style?
OA. Wordy
OB. Distrustful
OC. Detailed
OD. Predictable
SUBMIT

Answer 1

I would say B. Distrustful

Step-by-step explanation:

Style is how the author tells a story. If the author tells a story that is very detailed then that is how he or she tells the story. If the author uses a lot of complicated words then the story is wordy. If the author uses lots of predictable events, that that is the story's style.

Tone is the authors attitude towards a story. Distrustful is the only word I see that best describes the tone because people might think the speech is not very reliable and should not be trusted.

Answer 2

Answer: B) Distrustful

Explanation: I believe this is the answer because I think it's the only option listed truly determined by tone, but feel free to lmk if I'm wrong!

Hope this helped!
