  2. Tone Challenge • In pairs you will read a selection of passages. While reading, highlight or underline the words which seem important to you and to the meaning of the passage. • Consider the highlighted words to decide which tone or tones these words might suggest. Use your tone sheet. • Next to or under each passage write a sentence or two that explains your selection(s).

The Odyssey by Homer "I shall throw you on a black ship and send you to the mainland, to King Echetos, destroyer of all mortal men, who will cut off your nostrils and ears with a sharp bronze sword; he will tear off your private parts and give them to the dogs to eat raw." SAMPLE ANSWER: THREATENING--In this excerpt, one of Homer's characters makes dire threats against another. The key to classifying a tone as "threatening" is the possibility or promise of negative action against the subject.
