I think its B

Explanation:

why do i think b is the

because an ad hominem is when someone attacks another person verbally by calling them names or by making fun of them.

e.g. when someone says they wants to become an author someone who is jealous or does not like them will say Something like 'they want to become an author even though they can't read'

the sentence that best describes the tone of the passage from the radio broadcast compared to the passage from the book is b. the radio broadcast has a more surprised tone.

consider the text evidence: in the passage from the book, the description is more matter-of-fact. it is simply describing the things resembling little grey snakes, but there is no urgency in the description. on the other hand, in the passage from the radio broadcast, there is definetely urgency (you can tell from the expression used, "good heavens", which clearly indicates surprise.)
