I NEED HELP I'M SOO LOST I'LL GIVE A BRAINLIEST TO THE BEST ANSWER

Contrast the tone of the following two passages. (First, determine the tone of each passage. Then determine how the tones differ. What is the tone of each? How do you know? How do the tones differ?)

Tone ONE

Envisioning paths where Russell’s discovery could lead him, Rosalind and I began grooming him for interviews with the local news and math journals. In our minds, Russell’s future was bright and without limitation, starting with a full scholarship to MIT or Northwestern.

Tone 2

I came home for brief visits, but these visits were too awkward without Rosalind. The house was profoundly still. Mommy stayed in her room. Russell didn’t talk, let alone look at me.

How does the story make you feel when you read it? This is the mood or "atmosphere." Tone is closely related, but with more emphasis on the writing. So if the words make you laugh but are overwhelmingly dark, the tone is "sarcastic" or "sardonic" and the mood is "dark" and "funny." Honestly, the terms are often interchangeable.

I don't know but this is all I know I'm sorry
