C. They think they're charming, but they're rude to guests.
D. They think they're being sympathetic to each other, but they really hurt each others' feelings.
Answer:
The correct answer is B)
Explanation:
On page 15, Constantia comes to Josephine with a strange smile on her face. It was a week since their fathers' death and Constantine had come to remind Josephine that it was a week already. Josephine's response was a smile. One would have thought that their response would be that of pain knowing that the Colonel was never coming back again. Reading in between the lines that followed thereafter, one could infer that they were happy that the Colonel was gone.
For in those moments, the narrators describe how metaphorically even the Buddha at the mantlepiece seemed to be smiling at her. The still image was not smiling, she simply saw a reflection of her emotions projected on the image.

Tone is the feeling the reader gets about the way the author would tell his or her story while mood is the feeling the reader gets when reading the story.
Answer:
I believe the quote that does not support the inference that living in Alaska can be a challenge is:
c) "During this time, Alaskans spend a lot of time outside enjoying nature."
Explanation:
Quotes A, B, and D all talk about the challenges of living in Alaska. Alaskans need to worry about their vitamin D intake, about adjusting their lifestyles to lack or excess of light, etc. However, option C does not talk of a challenge or a difficulty. If we read option C without the context given in the passage, we would not at all guess that it has anything to do with a difficult, demanding lifestyle. It sounds as if Alaskans simply get to have fun in nature. For that reason, letter C is the one that does not support the inference that living in Alaska can be a challenge.
