The correct answer is C. Are these positive or negative words?

Explanation:

In texts including literary works such as novels, poems or short stories and non-literary works such as articles or reports, the tone of the author refers to the attitude, belief and even the position of the author towards the subject or topic he or she writes about which can be identified through the use of words that have a favorable or negative connotation and that suggest the way the author feels and thinks about a certain topic. This also implies in texts, this element can be identified by analyzing the type of words used by the author and the type of attitude these represent and therefore the question you can ask to understand the author's tone is "Are these positive or negative words?".
