Idescended the steps to the cellar, reminding myself that the smell of dirt was not to be feared. the earthen walls shone with moisture, and the rows of jarred fruit gleamed. i loathed these errands and doubted my ability to discern a peach from a pear in the dim light. i held a jar inches from my eyes and concluded it was some undesirable green—beans or peas—to be retrieved at a later date. as i mused, something crept stealthily from the shadows, and pounced unexpectedly from the summer’s stash. which best describes the tone of the excerpt?
a - somber
b - disinterested
c - angry
d - uncertain

1. this would be first person. it would be like "i walked home from school today" they are the narrator of the story and is a character as well.

2. first person because they used the word "i" in the quote.

3. i'm really not sure about this one i'm really sorry i never read it so i wouldn't know how to answer it. 

4. it would be character vs. society because everyone he meets there is always a conflict of some sort because he's stuck in his daydream.

5. it would be sadness at the loss of youth because the title itself tells us it's about age so it couldn't be about regret. and the tone just sounds sad, not angry. 

i hope this !
