In literature, the term tone refers to the writer's attitude or feelings about the subject matter as well as towards the audience. Such tone is created by authors through the use of literary elements, such as diction( defined as  word choice),  syntax ( or the grammatical arrangement of words), imagery ( referred to the vivid appeals to the senses); details (related with facts that are either  included or omitted) and figurative language (which refers to  the comparison with apparently unrelated things.  

In the particular segment.. “He was tall, gaunt, with a pale skin and sunken eyes the color of a kingfisher's wing, neither blue nor green...” details and figurative languages seem to be used by the author as literary elements to express his/her attitude towards Kenny, which could be categorized as indifferent

Muir starts off talking about how long he had been sitting by the Calypso-so long that he wasn't tired or hungry anymore. We, as the readers, think he has a bad attitude about sitting by this plant.We think this because it seems like he is describing his wait as painful(he is WAY past being tired or hungry). However, the next sentence contrasts with this idea. When the sun sets, Muir suddenly gets this jolt of purpose and energy, stronger and determined than ever before. Can you see the pattern here? As for the dialogue, it is a woman speaking, and she lives in the log house he sees. She has a negative attitude towards the swamp, while Muir has a positive one. She wonders why he would want to be in a dangerous place like the swamp, explaining that a body was found in it. She then goes on to say that it was God's mercy that Muir was able to get out of the mucky swamp.I hope this helps!

Sonja [21]

Answer: Students need a break to study for their rigorous midterm exams.

Explanation:

With the school term begining in the end of August and going on till the midterms save for a few holidays here and there, students do not really have time to rest and reflect.

Adding a weeklong break in October can therefore give students the time to rest and prepare for their very rigorous midterm exams which will theoretically lead to higher pass rates.
