Author’s Tone Question
To help prepare my ASVAB students for the Paragraph Comprehension section of the ASVAB, I wrote a book. My book is The ASVAB Tutor’s Word Knowledge and Paragraph Comprehenion Study Guide. I present a number of reading passages with questions and multiple choice answers. In my study guide, I also review the types of Paragraph Comprehension questions that exist on the ASVAB. One type of question that can appear on the ASVAB is author’s tone. Author’s tone is the attitude of the author in the written piece.
Today I present a question for Paragraph Comprehension.
The question asks about the author’s tone.
The question is:
An author wrote a horror story. What would the tone be?
- Factual
- Funny
- Sarcastic
- Scary
Do you know the author’s tone in a horror story? I will present the answer and explanation tomorrow.
