Rationale: Explain why you know that is the tone. What words in the sentence support the tone? ****Remember this is inference and interpretation. You may have different ideas that other students.

I will not have it said my name is soiled! Goody Proctor is a gossiping liar!” (172) What do you think the tone is for Abigail’s quote? (Think about the context of the entire passage) Rationale: Explain why you know that is the tone. What words in the sentence support the tone? opinion with proof from the text, your answer should be valid.
