The correct option described second is <em>"The tone is the same, but the word choice is less formal, probably for a younger reading audience."</em>
Explanation:
Replacing <em>"of the Victorian era"</em> with <em>"during a period of time known as the Victorian era" </em>shows less formality and a bit more explanation for younger readers.
Also <em>"distinguished" </em>is replaced with <em>"respected"</em> which is less formal and easier to be understood by younger readers.
The replacement of <em>"Her poetry influenced ..... and Emily Dickinson"</em> in first version with this long sentence <em>"Her poetry was very ............. by Ms. Browning"</em> in second version reduces formality to make it easier to understand for younger audience.
