I need help writing a stage one paragraph on act II in the crucible!!

I am suppose to write a stage one paragraph on act II in the crucible. In the stage one paragraph, i need to write about how a character creates "Tone"(the atmosphere the writer creates in a piece of literature; the writer's attitutde toward the material and/org readers. Ton may be playful, formal, intimate, angry, serious, ironic, outraged, baffled, tender serene, depressed, etc) in Act II. Could someone give me suggestions what to write about, and some quotes with a character creating "Tone" in Act II?

Thanks.
