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.

Fathers and Angels
Natali5045456 [20]

Setting: I would say jail / prison.

The story says; "This was the secured area where prisoners and their visitors

came together. Armed guards systematically paced around the room. Long tables with low metal dividers separating the visitors from the visited were the only furnishings. The prisoners were marched in dressed in orange or blue jumpsuits, or gray sweat suits with "DOC" emblazoned across the chests. The uniforms reinforced the myriad other signals around us: the prisoners were owned by the state."

( This may also be a different setting because the title is "Fathers and Angels", It may be prisoners of heaven or hell. Just my opinion! <3 )

The characters may be 2 inmates or 2 friends in prison / Jail.

I would answer more but I have a lottt of work to do! Good luck!
