Read this excerpt from Silent Spring. Then a strange blight crept over the area and everything began to change. Some evil spell

had settled on the community: mysterious maladies swept the flocks of chickens; the cattle and sheep sickened and died. Everywhere was a shadow of death. The farmers spoke of much illness among their families. Now read this excerpt from "Save the Redwoods". This righteous and lively indignation on the part of Californians after the long period of deathlike apathy, in which they have witnessed the destruction of other groves unmoved, seems strange until the rapid growth that right public opinion has made during the last few years is considered and the peculiar interest that attaches to the Calaveras giants. Which word best describes the tone used in both excerpts?
A: frustrated
B: passionate
C: wishful
D: insincere
