Which of the following is an accurate description of the tone in this sentence? The writer finds your behavior fascinating. The writer does not care about you and your actions. The writer likes you and wants to help you out. The writer is annoyed or frustrated with you. what about this one guys? I am thinking C... but then again it might be B

OpenStudy (whystudyalone3):

OpenStudy (southernbelle00):

i think its B or D. i'm just not sure whether or not level headed is hyphenated??

OpenStudy (southernbelle00):

nvm, it can't be D, i didn't see the comma, my bad. Yes then i'LL go with B

OpenStudy (whystudyalone3):
