Mood, Text Structure, Inference, Tone
5. In the first section of the article, author Kristin Lewis describes Halifax as a peaceful and prosperous place
where Noble likely would have felt safe. She then writes, “In a few minutes, this would change” (6).
Mood is the feeling the reader gets from a piece of writing. The sentence above changes the mood of the
section from
A frightening to pleasant.
B pleasant to uneasy.
C hopeful to hopeless.
6. On page 7, Lewis writes, “As the two ships came into each other’s view, they blared their whistles. But the
signals must have been misunderstood, because neither ship changed course.” What can you infer about the
collision from this information? (To infer is to draw a conclusion from evidence.)
