Read the following passage from the hound of the baskervilles, by sir arthur conan doyle.
as the old man stood there he saw something coming across the moor, something which terrified him so that he lost his wits…there was the long, gloomy tunnel down which he fled. and from what? a sheep-dog of the moor? or a spectral hound, black, silent, and monstrous? was there a human agency in the matter? did the pale, watchful barrymore know more than he cared to say? it was all dim and vague, but always there is the dark shadow of crime behind it.

what do you notice about the style of this passage?

it is an example of informal writing.
the sentences have different structures and lengths.
the tone of the piece is conversational.
doyle has avoided the use of descriptive language

Read the excerpt from hemingway’s a farewell to arms. we parked the cars beyond the brickyard. the ovens and some deep holes had been equipped as dressing stations. there were three doctors that i knew. i talked with the major and learned that when it should start and our cars should be loaded we would drive them back along the screened road and up to the main road along the ridge where there would be a post and other cars to clear them. which best describes hemingway’s style of writing in the excerpt? straightforward and simple, while still relating a lot of information to the reader long-winded and offering far too much information to the reader overly complicated, making it difficult to interpret and understand the text effortless and uncomplicated, with little meaning for the reader to interpret
