Answer:

The answer is B) Poe's melancholy tone emphasizes the grieving in the excerpt.

Explanation:

The excerpt we are analyzing here was taken from the short story "The Fall of the House of Usher", by Edgar Allan Poe. The tone the author uses in the excerpt is one of melancholy. The narrator is describing his friend Usher's appearance. Usher has been greatly affected by his sister's mysterious death. Words such as "pallor", "ghastly", and "tremulous" remind readers of sickness and death, emphasizing the grieving Usher has been going through.

Somehow, the deceased sister comes back from the dead. By this point, Usher and the narrator have been affected by the melancholy of the house. In the end, the narrator is still able to flee the house before it collapses.
