The clues that signal the reader should change tone are the punctuation marks, the grammatical signs. For example, the quotation marks at the beginning of something someone else said literally or the exclamation marks.
The tone of the first line of dialogue until "Gettysburg" is a kind tone, a tone of advise. The narrator is trying to help the other person in doing something he or she obviously is finding hard to do by giving a piece of advise and bringing up a memory of a successful similar case.
The clue that helps the reader understand how to read the word "bang" is the exclamation mark. It gives the word a surprise tone, a strong accent.
The best tone for reading the word "bang" is an exciting tone, a surprise one, even a loud one.
The words that should be read with a formal tone are the ones that give factual information. The sentence: Mister Lincoln couldn't think of anything to say at the Gettysburg" gives information about an event and it needs to be read formally, also, when the narrator wants to transmit calmness, a formal and slow tone is needed, because people also transmit messages with the vibrations of our voices and tones.
The play we are about to read will fill in the details of this story.
The line is basically saying: What is missed here, our play should fix. Of the response choices, Option A, What is lacking in this description is lacking in our play, is not a correct statement, so this answer is simply wrong. The rest are all correct statements, but only one is the best restatement. B is a correct statement but it adds the idea that there are "juicy details". The line does not hint at whether or not the information is juicy. Option D is also correct, however, the line doesn't say that the prologue is an introduction and it can't include the whole story. Option C is the best choice because it accurately restates the line without adding extra information.

- Ferdinand says that he has liked many women and had been consciously looking for someone who really has everything that he wants but he fails to find that one particular women.
