Answer: Haphazardly.

Explanation: The word "promiscuously" is used playfully here only to illustrate that the bones were spread rather chaotically across the floor. No allusion is made here to disorderly sexual conduct (which would make options "immoral" and "impure" viable), while "systematically" is opposite in meaning.

Which best describes the tone used in the sentence? my car isn’t the greatest, but it’s not really that bad.
Alinara [238K]
If this were a question on my test, I'd probably go for tolerant or sentimental. I'd probably go for sentimental, because if the sentence had a more tolerant tone, it would say something like "My car isn't the greatest, but I can live with it".
