Hi

Im using the Veritas RC Prep and the complete book uses the terms Scope, Tone and Purpose used to understand the passage.
The problem is that there is no actual explanation about what is exactly the definition of each of those terms.
Can anyone help me with this basic question? Im struggling with the difference between scope, purpose and tone.

Just go through the attached doc in the below link, it will help you understand about scope, purpose ( main idea ) and tone (author's attitude) in a passage.
