Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 9.39 Compare Subjective and Objective Tone Across Accounts skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Compare how the two accounts frame the tutoring app pilot. Account A (club newsletter column): “The account concedes that the review of the tutoring app pilot collected comments from 129 students, yet it frames the outcome as a rushed experiment. By saying the decision treated students like test subjects, the writer pushes readers toward an alarmed reaction.” Account B (survey summary): “The account says the review of the tutoring app pilot collected comments from 129 students. It reports that the summary grouped responses by concern and that administrators will review the themes, without stating whether the outcome is good or bad.” Which statement gives the strongest tone comparison?

ABoth accounts are equally objective because each one names the tutoring app pilot.

BAccount B is more subjective because it includes specific facts, while Account A is objective because it sounds more vivid.

CAccount A is more objective because strong opinions make the account clearer, while Account B is biased because it avoids emotional words.

DAccount A presents the tutoring app pilot through judgment, not just observation; Account B focuses on measurable or checkable information such as “administrators will review the themes.”

Solution & Explanation:For the tutoring app pilot, the stronger analysis does not treat numbers or official actions as bias. Account B uses those details neutrally, while Account A adds opinion through “treated students like test subjects.”

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Both accounts address the school cafe renovation; their tone is not the same. Account A: “The account says the review of the school cafe renovation summarized results from 11 classrooms. It reports that the average rating increased from 3.1 to 3.8 and that the survey will be repeated, without stating whether the outcome is good or bad.” Account B: “The account concedes that the review of the school cafe renovation summarized results from 11 classrooms, yet it frames the outcome as a smart and practical fix. By saying the decision made the next step feel possible, the writer pushes readers toward a supportive reaction.” Which choice best identifies the account that relies on judgment rather than observation?

AThe account with more descriptive language is automatically more accurate, so Account B is the more objective source.

BBoth accounts are equally objective because each one names the school cafe renovation.

CAccount B colors the school cafe renovation with opinion words, especially “a smart and practical fix”; Account A keeps a more neutral tone by describing what happened and what officials will do next.

DAccount A is more subjective because it includes specific facts, while Account B is objective because it sounds more vivid.

Solution & Explanation:For the school cafe renovation, Account B has a supportive tone because it uses evaluative phrasing. Account A is more objective because it gives facts about the process and avoids praise or blame.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Read the accounts closely. Decide which account is more subjective and explain why its wording matters. Source A (podcast transcript): “The account concedes that the review of the community orchestra concert collected comments from 129 students, yet it frames the outcome as a disappointing setback. By saying the decision sent the wrong message, the writer pushes readers toward a disappointed reaction.” Source B (event report): “The account says the review of the community orchestra concert collected comments from 129 students. It reports that the summary grouped responses by concern and that administrators will review the themes, without stating whether the outcome is good or bad.” Which analysis avoids confusing detail with objectivity?

AAccount B is more emotional because it identifies actions such as “administrators will review the themes,” while Account A is neutral because it gives a personal judgment.

BAccount A uses evaluative wording to steer readers toward a disappointed response, while Account B uses neutral facts about the community orchestra concert, including “collected comments from 129 students.”

CThe account with more descriptive language is automatically more accurate, so Account A is the more objective source.

DBoth accounts are equally objective because each one names the community orchestra concert.

Solution & Explanation:For the community orchestra concert, the key evidence is diction. Words and phrases such as “a disappointing setback” carry judgment, but details like administrators will review the themes can be checked without accepting the writer’s opinion.
