Read this passage from Through the Looking-Glass. “WHY do you say ‘feather’ so often?” Alice asked at last, rather vexed. “I'm not a bird!” “You are,” said the Sheep: “you're a little goose.” This offended Alice a little, so there was no more conversation for a minute or two, while the boat glided gently on, sometimes among beds of weeds (which made the oars stick fast in the water, worse than ever), and sometimes under trees, but always with the same tall river-banks frowning over their heads. What tone do the underlined words create in this passage? They create a frightened tone. They create a humorous tone. They create a tense tone. They create a happy tone.
