Which story because I don’t really get the question?
D. is the answer because every look like old but their young
The lines from <span>"The Raven” by Edgar Allan Poe which help to create the dark and gloomy tone of the poem are your second option:

<span>Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore—
It is midnight, so it is dark. Dreary means gloomy, so this should be the correct answer.
</span>
