I think the answer is D, he talks about his soul never being able to get back up again, that sounds hopeless. I thought maybe B, because he talks about his hopes flying based off of someone leaving him before. But, D sounds like it fits better to me.
Afterward is the correct answer
Hi! :) The tone is the feeling the the author creates using their words. A writer can make a story feel scary if they use words that indicate that mood like if they described a hauted house. They would say that it is dark, makes creaking noises, abandoned, old, or mysterious. The tone of a story creates the setting and mood for the reader to relate to and feel more engaged with the story.
Participle is a verbal form that is used as if it were an adjective or adverb.
So, if the verb is, for example, "to bark" the participle would be"barking" as in "this barking dog"
and the correct answer is b. barking!
