Read the excerpt from Warriors Don't Cry.

The announcer said it was 7:55 as Mama squeezed into a parking space, and we settled ourselves quietly for a moment, trying to identify the buzzing noise that seemed as if it were all around us. It resembled the sound of crowds at my high school football games. But how could that be? The announcer said there was a crowd, but surely it couldn't be that big.

Which word from the excerpt creates mood?

a.settled

b.buzzing

c.resembled

d.games

Answer:

b. Buzzing

Explanation:

From the passage, narrator seems amazed at how packed the stadium was, as there was barely any parking space and how they heard a buzzing noise that was as if it was "all around us". The narrator also voiced out that the announcer said there was a crowd, but surely she did not expect it to be that big to create that buzzing sound.

Therefore, the word that creates mood from the excerpt is buzzing because it shows how lively and loud the place was.
