In this excerpt from charles dickens's a christmas carol, which lines best show how other characters perceive scrooge's stingy nature? she was very pretty:   exceedingly pretty.  with a dimpled, surprised-looking, capital face; a ripe little mouth, that seemed made to be kissed—as no doubt it was; all kinds of good little dots about her chin, that melted into one another when she laughed; and the sunniest pair of eyes you ever saw in any little creature’s head.  altogether she was what you would have called provoking, you know; but satisfactory, too.  oh, perfectly satisfactory."he's a comical old fellow," said scrooge's nephew, "that's the truth:   and not so pleasant as he might be.  however, his offences carry their own punishment, and i have nothing to say against him.""i'm sure he is very rich, fred,” hinted scrooge's niece.  "at least you always tell me so.""what of that, my dear! " said scrooge's nephew.  "his wealth is of no use to him.  he don't do any good with it.  he don’t make himself comfortable with it.  he hasn't the satisfaction of thinking—ha, ha, ha! —that he is ever going to benefit us with it.""i have no patience with him," observed scrooge's niece.  scrooge's niece's sisters, and all the other ladies, expressed the same opinion."oh, i have! " said scrooge's nephew.  "i am sorry for him; i couldn’t be angry with him if i tried.  who suffers by his ill whims!   himself, always.  here, he takes it into his head to dislike us, and he won’t come and dine with us.  what’s the consequence?   he don’t lose much of a dinner."

What is the effect of narrator's word choice on the tone of this passage? the words "my heart shrank within itself" create a fearful tone. the words "wounded his fellow" develop a remorseful tone. the words "struck harsh upon my ears" suggest an irritated tone. the words "better-omened" set a hopeful tone. excerpt from "the cabuliwallah" by rabindranath tagore i was sitting in my study, looking through the accounts, when some one entered, saluting respectfully, and stood before me. it was rahmun the cabuliwallah. at first i did not recognise him. he had no bag, nor the long hair, nor the same vigour that he used to have. but he smiled, and i knew him again. "when did you come, rahmun? " i asked him. "last evening," he said, "i was released from jail." the words struck harsh upon my ears. i had never before talked with one who had wounded his fellow, and my heart shrank within itself when i realised this; for i felt that the day would have been better-omened had he not turned up.
