Read the excerpt from Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry. Which best describes the tone of the excerpt? "All right," Papa said, direct
ing us toward the church. But as we neared the building, we were stopped by the Laniers. As the grown-ups talked, Little Willie Wiggins and Moe Turner, standing with several other boys, motioned to Stacey from the road. Stacey wandered away to speak to them and Christopher-John, Little Man, and I went too. O judgmental O fearful O curious O humorous
According to the excerpt given, the narrator describes how they were on their way to church with their father before they were stopped by the Laniers and as the grown-ups talked, the little children beckoned to Stacey and as she went over to meet them, she was joined by the narrator and two other children.
The tone of the excerpt can be described as curious because the other little children wanted to know why Stacey was beckoned.
D. Students. It would affect the student body the most, and I doubt teachers would like to or need to "take a stand on what you wear". Hope this helps :)
