The tone of the passage is

  • A.Descriptive
  • B.Critical
  • C.Analytical
  • D.Prescriptive

Answer: B

The tone of the passage is critical. The author finds fault with society for blaming science while using its benefits, with scientists for believing in unlimited technological progress, and with the present obsession with technology, which is called a dead end.

It is not merely descriptive, as it passes judgement throughout. It is not analytical in the strict sense of weighing evidence step by step, and it is not prescriptive, because the passage offers no list of actions beyond the remark that additional guidelines are needed.
