Sentence 1 Amongst the most violent against him was Mrs. Bennet, whose dislike of his general behaviour was sharpened into particular resentment by his having slighted one of her daughters. Sentence 2 Mrs. Bennet didn't like the way he acted because he slighted one of her daughters. What effect does replacing Sentence 1 with Sentence 2 have on the tone of the sentence? A) The sentence would be more formal. B) The sentence would be less general. C) The sentence would be less critical. D) The sentence would contain more humor.

Respuesta :

The effect of replacing Sentence 1 with Sentence 2 on the tone of the sentence is reflected in option C) The sentence would be less critical. We can infer this due to the formal style and use of words of sentence 1. Sentence 2 is more informal, and uses shorter structures in a clear way, which helps soften in some way the impact of the words in sentence 2.

Option A) is incorrect since sentence 2 is far less formal than sentence 1

Option B) is also incorrect since sentence 2 is not less general

And finally option D) is also incorrect since the choice of words in sentence 1 does not depict traces of humor.
