In my perspective, the answer is definitely letter B. Sasha feels *pity* for her friend. The word "pity" is quite ambiguous depending to how it is expressed or delivered to the recipient. More importantly, it focuses on the intent of the speaker (either you're mocking them or share their feelings).

Answer:

B.) Sasha feels *pity* for her friend.

Explanation:

This is the most negative connotation because to feel 'pity' for someone may or may not sound belittling in some way, shape, or form. When you describe something as 'pitiful', it means that thing is insignificant, wretched, or paltry in some manner

Additionally, when you feel pity for someone, it is usually due to a negative or unfortunate situation going on in his/her life.

Answer:

D: he is brave ​

Explanation:

The excerpt is from "The Masque of the Red Death" by Edgar Allan Poe. The story depicts the "The Red Death", a lethal disease that plagues Prince Prospero's kingdom. Throughout the text, Prince Prospero is depicted as an arrogant, selfish, dauntless and fearless man who only cares about protecting himself and the elites of his kingdom.

<em>"The Red Death, a bloody disease that kills a man rapidly with a seizure and bleeding from the pores, is terrorizing the country. </em><em>But Prince Prospero is unaffected. </em><em>Though his people are dying by the hour, he gathers his friends and his knights and shuts himself away in an ornate abbey, which he designed himself. "</em>

In the current excerpt, the words,<em> "Prince Prospero, maddening with rage and the shame of his own momentary cowardice." and "He bore aloft a drawn dagger, and had approached, in rapid impetuosity, to within three of four feet of the retreating figure." </em>convey that although Prince Prospero's authority and determination have been severely challenged by the Red Death, he willfully draws a dagger and decides to confront the figure.
