Read the excerpt from The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame. The Mole had been working very hard all the morning, spring-cl

eaning his little home.

Answer: B, the negative connotations of the words “dust,” “aching,” and “weary” give the excerpt a tone of tiredness.

Explanation:

In the excerpt, we learn that the mole has been working hard, and that he worked all morning. Spring-cleaning usually implies a deep cleaning, like replacing the carpet or cleaning your oven. However, when someone typically does some spring-cleaning, they end up tired. We can prove this by using the words “aching” and “weary,” as they describe being tired.
