Here are two examples. Please classify each as either negative, positive, or neutral:

Example #1
Teacher: You made an A on the test.
Student: “That’s incredible news!”

Example #2:
“You made a pathetic C on the test.”
Example #1: Positive
Example #2: Negative
 
Example #1 highlights the student’s achievement, using words such as “incredible” and “A.” The tone is positive and encouraging.
 
Example #2, on the other hand, is blunt and critical, using words like “pathetic” and “C” to convey disappointment. The tone is negative. ๑
