Answer:

The narrator's description of the mother contrasted sharply with the revelation of the mother's secret, revealing her to be someone she presented herself not to be which surprises and shocks the reader, as the mother was practically described as being a saint.

Explanation:

In A Dead Woman's Secret the narrator described the mother as a rigid disciplinarian who instilled unshakable morals in her children, which resulted in the son becoming a magistrate without pity for the weak and the daughter becoming a nun.

This description creates an image of the mother as a virtuous woman in the reader's mind, as also assumed by her son and daughter.

So the surprise is real when the mother is revealed to be a woman who had an affair with a man that was not her husband, the behavior is not in keeping with who she was described to be.

I need to know “2.”

This is hard to answer as mood and tone are two different things. Mood is the reader’s feelings you get from a passage. Tone is what the author’s attitude is within the passage to get the reader to have a certain feeling. That said, as you read it, what are you feeling?  Would or could this be one of confusion? Humor (if you understand the joke)?  If you don’t have your mood word list, you can google it. The good thing about mood is that there really isn’t a wrong answer if you can defend the way you came to that answer.
