Dear Mayor Levine,
We send our children to school so that they can learn the
skills that they need to prepare them for the challenges of life. In order to make this possible, we want them
to learn in an environment that is safe and secure. We truly believe that this
encourages them to learn and take part in school activities.
Lately, however, we are now troubled by reports that there
many unruly students who cause trouble for the school and other students as
well. What is more alarming is that many
of them are carrying concealed weapons and we are afraid that our children’s
lives will be at risk.
We urgently request
that your office to do something about this problem. We are worried about the
safety and welfare of our children is now at risk because of these recent
developments. We will be happy to work
with you in creating a safe in environment for our children to learn in school.
Thank you and God Bless!
Very Truly Yours,
John Doe

I think it's compound. Not sure.
Answer:
The sentence in the excerpt that shows a mocking tone is:
Like he could ever be an astronaut!
Explanation:
To mock means to make fun of something or someone in a derisive, cruel manner. Notice how the sentence "Like he could ever be an astronaut!" mocks the sentence that came before it. It is, in a cruel, sarcastic way, refuting the possibility of Jason becoming an astronaut like he used to dream of. We can easily hear the tone in which the sentence would be spoken in our minds - a laughing, ironic tone.
You are correct my dear friend but do you mind explaining it a little more i still do not understand where this is coming from
