The correct answer is A) The author repeats words and employs parallelism.

The statement that best describes the tone of this passage is "The author repeats words and employs parallelism. "

We can see how parallelism is used in the sentences above. Parallelism is a grammatical term to arrange words of the same syntactical construction in phrases or clauses. It is used to have a parallel structure or the same structure.

The other options of the question are B) The author feels frustrated for the farmers, C) The author uses the word "creep" to emphasize that debt is sinister, and D) The author uses descriptive words to show what the farmers have done.

Answer:

Feldman reaches the conclusion that most people are honest without receiving an incentive by

studying a counterclaim about morality and arriving at a broad generalization.

Explanation:

A researcher can reach a conclusion that most people are honest after studying a counterclaim about morality.  He can then arrive at a broad generalization.

A counterclaim is the opposite of an argument, or simply, the opposing argument.  A counterclaim research is one undertaken to establish that the opposite of a research situation prevails.  It is a claim made against a situation or an established position in order to rebut the claimed position.

In this instance, Glaucon had taken a position that no man could resist the temptation of evil if he knew his acts could not be witnessed or dictated.  For Feldman to contradict this claim, with a conclusion that 87% of the time, a man could resist the temptation of evil even if he knew his acts could not be witnessed or dictated because he had become invisible, it means that he had researched the counterclaim.
