Read the excerpt from h. g. wells's the war of the worlds. there were raised voices, and some sort of struggle appeared to be going on about the pit. strange imaginings passed through my mind. as i drew nearer i heard stent's voice: "keep back! keep back! " a boy came running towards me. "it's a-movin'," he said to me as he passed; "a-screwin' and a-screwin' out. i don't like it. i'm a-goin' 'ome, i am." i went on to the crowd. there were really, i should think, two or three hundred people elbowing and jostling one another, the one or two ladies there being by no means the least active. how does the author use tone to create an aesthetic impact in the excerpt? through vivid adjectives through tense dialogue through expert testimony through background information

Its through tense dialogue

The correct answer is “through tense dialogue”. By definition, tone is an attitude of a writer toward a subject or an audience and it is conveyed through either the choice of words or the viewpoint of a writer on a particular subject. In the case of this excerpt from the novel “The War of the Worlds” by H. G. Wells (1897), the tone is tense and one of suspense. Moreover, it contains nervousness. Therefore, in order to create that tone and have an impact with it, the author included a tense dialogue between Stent and the narrator.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
