Question

which of the following is a component of tone? the font used in the book the author’s style of writing the way the audience feels

Explanation:

Tone in writing relates to the author’s attitude conveyed through their writing style (word choice, syntax, etc.). The font is a visual/formatting element, not related to tone. The audience’s feelings are the "mood" or reader’s response, not the tone (which is author - driven). So the author’s style of writing is a component of tone.

Answer:

B. the author's style of writing
