Answer:

A. realistic. The tone reveals that, universally, humankind is perseverant and will do what it takes to survive.

Explanation:

The tone that correctly identifies and reveals the universal theme is option A as it is realistic and reveals that humans will persevere even in the face of difficult times and will do anything to survive.

This is shown by the attempts by Phong Dinh to leave Vietnam by boat and being unsuccessful 25 times as the paid boatmen never showed up.

The will to survive and succeed was shown when his eldest child Van Dinh managed to finally leave on a boat after six years.
