Read this paragraph from strange case of dr. jekyll and mr. hyde. “the lawyer stood awhile when mr. hyde had left him, the picture of disquietude. then he began slowly to mount the street, pausing every step or two and putting his hand to his brow like a man in mental perplexity. the problem he was thus debating as he walked was one of a class that is rarely solved. mr. hyde was pale and dwarfish. he gave an impression of deformity without any nameable malformation, he had a displeasing smile, he had borne himself to the lawyer with a sort of murderous mixture of timidity and boldness, and he spoke with a husky, whispering and somewhat broken voice; all these were points against him, but not all of these together could explain the hitherto unknown disgust, loathing, and fear with which mr. utterson regarded him. ‘there must be something else,’ said the perplexed gentleman. ‘there is something more, if i could find a name for it. god bless me, the man seems hardly human! something troglodytic, shall we say? or can it be the old story of dr. fell? or is it the mere radiance of a foul soul that thus transpires through, and transfigures, its clay continent? the last, i think; for o my poor old harry jekyll, if ever i read satan’s signature upon a face, it is on that of your new friend.’” which word most effectively describes the tone in this paragraph? a. unconcerned b. disturbing c. desperate d. hopeless

Read this excerpt from through the looking-glass by lewis carroll. "you might make a joke on that,” said the little voice close to her ear: "something about ‘you would if you could,’ you know.” "don't tease so,” said alice, looking about in vain to see where the voice came from; "if you're so anxious to have a joke made, why don't you make one yourself? ” the little voice sighed deeply: it was very unhappy, evidently, and alice would have said something pitying to comfort it, "if it would only sigh like other people! ” she thought. but this was such a wonderfully small sigh, that she wouldn't have heard it at all, if it hadn't come quite close to her ear. the consequence of this was that it tickled her ear very much, and quite took off her thoughts from the unhappiness of the poor little creature. what question should a reader ask to clarify what is happening in the story? who or what is the voice speaking to alice? when will alice attempt to share a joke? what secret will alice share with the new character? why do whispers tickle the listener?
