The word choices in the lines affect the mood of the story by making it tiring and strange. Words such as "tired" and "noisy" convey the lack of silence and, therefore, the exhaustion. Words such as "new" and "unfamiliar" convey the strangeness the character feels.

<h3>What is mood?</h3>

In literature, mood can be defined as the atmosphere created by an author in order to evoke certain feelings and emotions from his readers. To create a certain mood, diction, imagery, and setting are very useful.

In the excerpt we are analyzing here, the words "tired", "noisy", "new" and "unfamiliar" help create a tiring and strange mood. The character is clearly exhausted from dealing with a new and strange environment.

The last paragraph explains that too many false alarms can be dangerous to one's health, which is important to explain since the rest of the passage seems to promote stress as a way to survive or thrive in moments of crisis.

Hope this helps.

Answer:

Even though Tina told her to skip it, Lexie had a nagging feeling in her gut that if she missed her brother's spelling bee, he would be extremely disappointed in her as well as her parents. After a half an hour of going through the list of pros and cons she had written, she called Tina and told her that although she truly did want to go to the show with them, she thought that her family should always come before friends. Tina completely understood and when Jess heard the news, she was disappointed but came to terms with Lexie's decision. As soon as Lexie arrived at the spelling bee competition, her brother's face lit up with pure happiness and joy when he noticed that Lexie was there with their parents. <em>This was the right decision.</em> Lexie thought while she cheered on her brother. At the end of the championship, her brother won and they all went out to celebrate.
