The answer is " This word choice shows that Thurber is depressed by this story".

The explanation for this answer is that the word "ominous" announces or brings a sense of bad omen, depression, misfortune, unhappiness; ominous, disastrous and nefarious. In this way we understand that the use of this word in the text shows that thunder is depressed by this story.

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Satanta's speech is affected by the humble tone by making it sound respectful to the commissioners. This is also important since he says that he will not hide anything from them.
