Question

Read the passage.

Answer 1

Quavering means like trembling or shaky so my best guess would be option c-uncertainty however I do not know for sure. It is definitely not calm or boredom, and mischief doesn't seem to fit with "mysterious."

Answer 2

Answer: A quavering cry creates a feeling of uncertainty.

The use of the word "quavering" conveys a feeling of uncertainty in this passage. The quavering cry cannot be calm, as it is a noisy, somewhat unexpected sound. Because it is not particularly intense, it is unlikely to convey mischief. Finally, a cry is also unlikely to convey a feeling of boredom.
