Question

read the excerpt from \blueman on the move.\ i might look old, but like i said, im new here. and if i ever gonna get where im going, i have to keep moving. which word best describes the tone of these stanzas? indifferent exuberant embarrassed resolute

Explanation:

To determine the tone, analyze each option:

• "Indifferent" implies a lack of care, but the speaker is focused on moving forward, so not indifferent.
• "Exuberant" suggests extreme excitement, which isn't conveyed here.
• "Embarrassed" relates to shame, not present in the excerpt.
• "Resolute" means determined. The lines "I have to keep moving" and the focus on progress show a firm, determined attitude.

Answer:

D. resolute
