What is the definition of tone? the attitude of a text toward the subject and theme the choice of words an author uses to express an idea what a word suggests beyond its literal meaning a slight difference that can affect the meaning of something

The right answer is: The attitude of a text toward the subject and theme. When we speak of the literary tone of a text we refer to a narrator´s attitude to what he or she narrates. In other words, the tone is the main emotion that reflects in the narrative style of the narrator.

To understand this concept, we must take into account the idea that there are many ways to tell the same thing. It is said that there is only a finite number of stories that we have to repeat constantly throughout the history of mankind.

the choice of words an author uses to express an idea. This is the correct option. The author expresses his / her ideas through certain words or expressions. He / She may do so through the characters in a story. If it is not a story, he / she will express his / her tone through comments or opinions.

These options are not right:

-the attitude of a text toward the subject and theme. The text does not have any attitude. An author uses a text to express his / her attitude.

-what a word suggests beyond its literal meaning. This is called connotation.

- a slight difference that can affect the meaning of something. This is not clear. What sort of difference is the statement referring to?
