The term tumult in the passage refers to the loud noise caused by a large mass of people. Because its created by a large mass of people, it is loud and sometimes confusing. The tumult in the passage is caused by the roar of the sea and the drone of the wind.

Answer:

b) The cries and laughter of children filled the air as they waded through the fountain, avoiding the different spouts of water.

Explanation:

When Cassandra hears weeping and laughing kids wading through the fountain in Washington Square Park on a beautiful day, it's the line from the narrative that most captures her sentiments about being there. This sentence indicates that Cassandra is enjoying the sights and sounds of the park on a beautiful day.

a) She sighed and opened her eyes to the magnificent Washington Square Arch. Cassandra's feelings about being in the park are not revealed in this line. Based on the fact that she sighed before opening her eyes, we can only presume she was tired or bored.

c) Some students lounged on the grass, while others played instruments as they went around the park. This sentence does not indicate Cassandra's feelings about being in the park. We can only assume she was taken aback by the variety of people she saw while strolling around the park.

d) It seemed as though the fountain water at Washington Square Park Fountain was encrusted with hundreds of diamonds. This sentence does not indicate Cassandra's feelings about being in the park. We can only speculate as to why she was unable to speak or respond to the sight of the fountain.

Don't make noice=positive?

vazorg [7]

Answer:

<h2>Negative sentence</h2>

A negative sentence is a sentence that states that something is false. In English, we create negative sentences by adding the word 'not' after the auxiliary, or helping, verb.

In this sentence the word not is added to the word do. Which makes this sentence negative.

Therefore,

Don't make noise is not a positive sentence.

It's a negative sentence.
