Question 3 • [ELA11] ELA 11, Sem 1 (26-27)

Which words and phrases contribute to the assertive tone of Set'tainte (Satanta)? Check the two boxes that apply.

Answer
A
“I shall hide nothing from you”
B
“and not in the dark”
C
“will not part with it”
D
“free and happy”
E
“I feel sorry”

Explanation

“I shall hide nothing from you” is a firm declaration that Satanta will speak openly. “Will not part with it” is also assertive because it strongly states that he refuses to give something up. “Free and happy” and “I feel sorry” express feelings rather than a forceful stance.
