Read the excerpt from "Amigo Brothers." Bong! Bong! Bong! The bell sounded over and over again. Felix and Antonio were past hearing. Their blows continued to pound on each other like hailstones. Finally the referee and the two trainers pried Felix and Antonio apart. Cold water was poured over them to bring them back to their senses. They looked around and then rushed toward each other. A cry of alarm surged through Tompkins Square Park. Was this a fight to the death instead of a boxing match? Which tone would be most appropriate for a text trailer that includes this scene? A. authoritative B. mysterious C. educational D. suspenseful

D. Suspenseful.

Explanation:

Suspense is the feeling of uncertainty, unknown of what is to happen in the coming scenes. This narrative tone is used by writers to present their readers with an uncertain future, captivating their attention so that they are compelled to stay on course and keep on reading.

In the given excerpt from Piri Thomas's "Amigo Brothers," the tone used is that of suspense. The two boxers were competing to win against the other, so much that they "were past hearing" even after the "bell sounded over and over again." They had to be separated by "the referee and two trainers", and "cold water [...] poured over them to bring them back to their senses." And once that happened, the two "looked around and rushed toward each other", not certain of what is to happen. The narrator's question "Was this a fight to the death instead of a boxing match?" leaves the narration mid-way, leaving us blind about what happened after that.

Thus, the correct answer is suspenseful tone.

in   ¨and yet the books¨   by czelaw miloz the tone is positive since it tells us that when we touch a book, it starts to live and the perspective is in the third person and turns once into the first person. in "the rhinoceros" by eugene ionesco the tone is illogical and absurd   and the perspective is in the third person since it is a play.

yo it cool and all : )
