Which comment is about the diction of a story?

D.

Explanation:

Option D is the one that best describes the diction of a story. A story's diction refers to the choice of words that an author makes in the text. The specific words that are used by an author can have a great impact on a story. In this case, we learn that the words the author used are dark and sinister, and this provides the perfect backdrop for suspense.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

the correct answer is c. usually the language, and its emotional insight, that is how feelings and attitudes are expressed through language, are not quite present in film adaptations. despite that, it is a factor that a fan may either not notice or not care much about, especially compared to the other factors.
