Answer:

The word “seemed” implies the following in the passage from "The Death of the Moth", by Virginia Woolf:

State of being—neither positive nor negative.

Explanation:

When the author stated the specimen "seemed to be content with life", she meant that was the impression they gave if one looked at them, that is, that was the way they appeared to be. Therefore, "seemed" implies "state of being—neither positive nor negative". In other words, it implies anyone would be given the same impression when looking at the specimen, and such impression is just a fact, neither positive nor negative, that is, it is what it is.
