Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. Tone is the writer's attitude to the subject, while mood is the feeling created in the reader
- Step 1: Tone belongs to the writer or speaker. Step 2. Mood belongs to the atmosphere that the reader feels. Answer: tone is the attitude and mood is the feeling created. Why not the others: the first alternative reverses the terms, and setting and plot are different concepts.
