the software magnate has been revolutionizing the gaming industry for a decade, releasing several new and exciting titles each quarter. this past quarter, mr. vincents company posted an impressive profit, as it has in each of the past 10 quarters. the public has caught on to vincents vision, and the sky continues to be his only limit.

the article uses primarily subjective language to describe the companys financial state.
the article uses only objective language to describe the storys subject and his company.
this article uses subjective language that expresses the authors opinion on the subject.
this article uses objective language to impress readers with the subjects achievements.

Explanation:

• Subjective language is based on personal feelings, opinions, or interpretations. In the excerpt, words like "revolutionizing", "exciting", "impressive", and "the sky continues to be his only limit" are not objective facts but rather the author's opinions.
• The first option is wrong because the text is not about the company's financial state. The second option is incorrect as there is subjective language. The fourth option is wrong because the language is subjective, not objective.

Answer:

This article uses subjective language that expresses the author’s opinion on the subject.
