What are the best questions to ask to determine the author’s viewpoint? select three options. what is the author’s tone? what atmosphere does the author create? what time period does the author write about? what events does the author include in the text? what is the author’s purpose for writing the text?

The best questions to ask to determine the author's viewpoint are the following ones:

Option 1: What is the author's tone?

The tone used by an author says a lot about his or her viewpoints, since depending on how a certain thing is said, it has this or that effect on the reader. E.g.: a sentence like "Cutting costs is definitely the best solution to our country", depending on the context, cannot always be interpreted literally, since the author could be using a sarcastic tone.

Option 2: What atmosphere does the author create?

Atmosphere is another vital feature to help detect an author's viewpoint. Depending on the way you describe, say, a place, your goal can be this or that. E.g.: an author who writes about ancient Greece and only outlines its literary merits, creates a complimentary atmosphere. On the other hand, if the same place is described with the sexual freedom there was in those days, an atmosphere of lust or judgement (depending on the author's viewpoint of that era) can be created.

Option 3: What is the author's purpose for writing the text?

Purpose is essential. When an author engages in writing, he or she certainly has a reason for doing so. It has to do with how they see a certain topic, that is, with their viewpoint of it. E.g.: it is possible to write about religion with various purposes, like criticizing it, saying how important it is in a person's life, outlining historical facts about it, etc. It all depends on the author's purpose, and his or her viewpoint will certainly appear, one way or another.
