 * //Paragraph//

I __deeply resent__ our city council’s granting permission for the development of fifty condominiums along Canyon Drive. The plain truth is, __the plan stinks__! Most residents of Canyon Drive are people like me who moved here years ago. We were attracted by the peace of the location. Now, for __no good reason__, we __have been betrayed__ by our elected officials. We face the __nightmare__ of listening to the __racket of construction work around the clock__ and of seeing our lovely neighborhood turned into heaven knows what. The prospect __makes me sick__. It is __maddening__ that the city council, in one __careless decision__, can __destroy__ the lifestyles that we have worked so hard to achieve. I urge all members of this community to sign a petition forcing the city council to reverse their decision. Failing that, we should __vote the bums out of office__!


 * TONE**: The speaker’s/author’s attitude about the city council’s decision on development was //frustrated, angry, disgruntled, aggravated// ||
 * Dear Council,

I think you should reconsider the devolopment of the condominiums. I believe this because some of the citizens might not want their land to get destroyed. They might try to destroy or vandalize the condos. Also, most of the citizens think it is a bad idea. So before you build your condominiums just think about the statements I just considerd.


 * TONE: The attitude I was going for is depresed and concered.

Also, when hhis mother is calling him "Mr. Coastwather" she is teasing him. And most parents like to play or mess around with thier kids by teasing them. Another, thing is when Hugh kept thee secret of what he thought he saw from his mom. I believe he did this to keep his mom from worring. ||
