Answer: A. Scratched.

Explanation: In literature, the tone refers to the attitude of the author towards the audience, the subject developed in the text or even towards a character. There are multiple types of tones, happy, sad, angry, suspenseful, fearful, etc. In the given excerpt we can see the description of a man that is very angry for something he just read in a letter, we can tell he is angry because it compares his feelings with the boom of the thunder and the flash of the lightning, the word that best establishes the tone is "scratched" because it gives the idea of anger and frustration.

I believe that the correct answer is C because that literally shows it, but it also could be A because that is a more accurate detail that she actually missed it, and that it wasn't just a random bus. But, I think it is most likely A because C is just imagery. Hope this clarified it a little bit!
