Read this excerpt from Rudolfo Anaya’s essay “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry.”

I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like to sample different ethnic foods, the breads of many many groups; just as many of us enjoy sampling books from different areas of the world. I travel to foreign countries, and I know more about myself as I learn more about my fellow human beings. Censorship imposes itself in my path of knowledge, and that activity can be justified by no one.

Answers

The last sentence wound employ the correct punctuation. For the first sentence, we use semi colons initially as a replacement for connectives. Both parts of the sentence make sense on their own so that would make the choice of punctuation incorrect. For the second sentence, it would need a comma after “grade”. And for the third sentence, either the connective “however” or the comma needs removing, you don’t need both.

Up Broadway Chandler moved with the vespertine dress parade. For this evening he was an exhibit as well as a gazer. For the next sixty-nine evenings he would be dining in cheviot and worsted at dubious table d’hôtes, at whirlwind lunch counters, on sandwiches and beer in his hall-bedroom. He was willing to do that, for he was a true son of the great city of razzle-dazzle, and to him one evening in the limelight made up for many dark ones.

Which word best describes the tone of this passage, and why?

Answers

Answer:

The word that best describes the tone of this passage is "willing" because it presents the tone of determination that Chandler has and that is transmitted to the reader through the reading of the text.

Explanation:

The tone of a text is the feeling conveyed to the reader through reading. In the text above, we can see the tone of determination, as Chandler is determined to sacrifice himself for many days to spend a night in the spotlight and have a lot of fun with it. This tone of determination is highlighted through the word "willing" which reinforces the feeling that the reader should feel.
