Answer:

Well, I can't quite determine if you mean for this to be a trick question or if you are serious.

I say that because technically speaking, A and C show future tense, while B and D show past tense.

Of all the options, A is the best one to represent the present tense. While it certainly <u><em>can</em></u> represent the present tense, it does a much better job at representing the future tense. Yes, really. Let me give you some other examples so you'll see what I mean.....

Explanation:

Today, I'm leaving for Paris on the 4:00 p.m. flight.   =    future tense

Today, the army is sending me to boot camp.    =   future tense

.......................

I should add....

If you were to say:  "Today, I'm babysitting my nephew."  --- <u><em>and you said it at the moment that you are in the house next to your nephew</em></u> -- then, THAT would be present tense.

In this example, we're talking about an action that is happening at the moment of speaking unlike option A above which refers to an action that hasn't happened yet.

Have you got it??

The synonym that has a connotation that matches the tone is this:

  • Rowdy

<h3>What synonym has a connotation that matches the text?</h3>

The synonym that has a connotation that matches the text is the rowdy one. A synonym refers to a word that is similar in meaning to another one. In this text, we can see that the word, rowdy is similar to the tone that we find in this text. A lot of things are happening at the same time. There is a thunderstorm, lightning, frightful games, and people on the ground.

All of these portray a frightful and disorganized scene. Rowdy is similar to something uncontrollable. So, the scene created in the text shows a very rowdy scene. The tone of a text is the feeling we get from the reading. The feeling, in this case, is that of rowdiness, therefore the last option is right.
