Answer:
Explanation:
The tone of this passage is that the author was solemn and distant. Wandering in the forest to find this myterious flower, and then finally finding it must have been amazing because he states at the end of paragraph 3," It seemed the most spiritual of all the flower people I had ever met. I sat down beside it and fairly cried for joy." He created the feeling of finally finding what you lost by saying that he cried for joy. Wanting to find something that seemed impossible, then finding it must have been a truly joyous feeling. He described the forest by having dropping vines and branches, having the feeling that you might get lost since the sun is going down, and describing finding the flower in all of its glory.
The answer is C) was, it is the past tense of being.
Hope this helps!
