Answer 1

The author, Jacob Levison, primarily uses facts and statements in his choice of language to convey his message in this excerpt. He presents factual information about the distribution and diversity of pine species, their prevalence in the eastern United States, their significance as timber trees, and the aesthetic appeal they bring when planted in groups in parks. This approach focuses on providing information and presenting facts rather than attempting to persuade or provide a sequence of events.
