The correct answer is D. Destructive, mindless.
Explanation
The Tone of a text is a literary technique in which the author of the text expresses her attitude or feelings regarding a topic so that the audience perceives them. According to the above, in the second paragraph of the fragment, Carlos uses the words "destructive" and "mindless" to express his position of the issue of whales' harm, arguing it is not necessary because there are already alternatives to obtain similar oils to those obtained from whales. So the correct answer is D. Destructive, mindless.

Explanation: the test just said that this was the right answer.
Question 1
The correct answer is d.
The possessive nouns are nouns that we use to express that a person or an object belongs to someone or something. We usually make them by adding apostrophe ('s) on the noun itself:
<em>boy's</em>
<em>mum's</em>
<em>Kate's</em>
In this particular case, we can notice that the sentence d. My dream is that one day my garden will be just as beautiful and productive as Sandy's! has a possessive noun and it is Sandy's.
SANDY (noun) + 'S = SANDY'S (possesive noun)
The other examples show the use of the possessive PRONOUNS.
a. Everything I know about gardening I learned from <u>my</u> good friend Sandy.
b. When she showed me <u>her</u> big, healthy, vegetable garden and offered me some gardening tips, I decided to listen hard.
c. Then she taught me how to cultivate rich and healthy soil and helped me identify which types of plants are best for the environment in <u>my</u> yard.
Question 2
The correct answer is c.
Proper nouns express a <u>unique person/object and become with capital letters</u>. All the other are<u> common nouns</u> (garden, soil, environment).
Question 3
The correct answer is c.
The present participle is the form we get when we add 'ing' to the verb.
<em>dig + ing = digging </em>
...as it appears in the example: A few weeks later, when I was digging up seeds that had not even sprouted yet, Sandy came over to introduce herself with a basket of fresh produce from her garden.
