The house that surrounds me while I sleep is built on undermined ground; far beneath my bed, the floor, the house’s foundations,

the stopes and passages of gold mines have hollowed the rock, and when some face trembles, detaches, and falls, three thousand feet below, the whole house shifts slightly, bringing uneasy strain to the balance and counterbalance of brick, cement, wood, and glass that hold it as a structure around me.

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Comical

Explanation:

The tone of this excerpt can best be described as comical. In this passage, we learn about the way Benjamin Franklin behaved when he was in Philadelphia. As he comes from Boston, he is not aware of many of the social rules that regulate this other colony. This is obvious when he goes to buy bread. As he arrives to the bakery, he asks for a type of bread but realizes that they do not sell it. This happens again with a different type of bread. Not knowing what else to ask for, he asks for three-penny worth of bread, which turns out to be an enormous quantity. This means that he has to walk down the street while carrying three great puffy rolls, which leads to a comical and ridiculous experience.
