I despise the fact that John is never on time when we have an appointment.Option B has the most strongly developed negative tone. The author does this through the use of the words "despise" and "never". These words are strongly negative as they have little or no hope for something positive to occur. Option A uses negative words like unfortunately and canceled but these are merely disappointing. The words not and strange in C are negative but don't create a strong negative tone, just displeasure. Option D is similar in tone to A and C because the narrator is merely displeased and disappointed.

The fourth alternative is correct (D).Among the alternatives, the fourth is the one that passes a greater perception of positivity. The use of the accomplished and glorious words give a positive tone to the passage. Whoever said that phrase is happy, fulfilled with his graduation and describes the characteristics of a beautiful, sunny and glorious day.
I would say D. because it's setting a positive scene.

The correct answer of the given question above would be option B. The sentence that most strongly develops a negative tone is this: .I despise the fact that John is never on time when we have an appointment. The word "despise" in this sentence creates a strong sense of negativity; stronger than the meaning of hate.
