How does Lancelot’s reading of the poem to Guenevere affect the mood of the audience?

from "Was it a Dream?" by Guy de Maupassant On turning round I saw that all the graves were open, that all the dead bodies had emerged from them, and that all had effaced the lies inscribed-engraved or written on the gravestones by their relations, substituting the truth instead. And I saw that all had been the tormentors of their neighbors-malicious, dishonest, hypocrites, liars, rogues, calumniators, envious; that they had stolen, deceived, performed every disgraceful, every abominable action, these good fathers, these faithful wives, these devoted sons, these chaste daughters, these honest tradesmen, these men and women who were called irreproachable. They were all writing at the same time, on the threshold of their eternal abode, the truth, the terrible and the holy truth of which everybody was ignorant, or pretended to be ignorant, while they were alive. I thought that SHE also must have written something on her tombstone, and now running without any fear among the half-open coffins, among the corpses and skeletons, I went toward her, sure that I should find her immediately. I recognized her at once, without seeing her face, which was covered by the winding-sheet, and on the marble cross, where shortly before I had read: "She loved, was loved, and died." I now saw: "Having gone out in the rain one day, in order to deceive her lover, she caught cold and died." * * * * * * * It appears that they found me at daybreak, lying on the grave unconscious.

She knew about the war; A: [she knew I'd been a soldier.] "You keep writing war stories," she said, "so I guess you must've killed somebody." B: [It was a difficult moment, but I did what seemed right, which was to say, "Of course not," and then to take her onto my lap and hold her for a while.] Someday, I hope, she'll ask again. But here I want to pretend she's a grown-up. I want to tell her exactly what happened, or what I remember happening, and then I want to say to her that as a little girl she was absolutely right.

F: [Only recently have I found what seems to be a reasonable explanation, and the answer is simple.] They did not and do not remember--and the worse the battle was, the less they remember.

The other day my teacher took up a comic book I'd been reading in class and told me I needed to be reading "real" books. Now, granted, I should not have been reading any book in class other than what we were learning, but I think my teacher is wrong. Comic books are just as "real" as any other book. Comic books are often educational and teach students about subjects they did not know before. Comic books are also extremely fun and popular and give students a positive reading experience. I'm going to recommend that we put some comic books on the summer reading list for next year.

Which sentence could best be added to this paragraph as a supporting detail?

A) I think we should be allowed to read comic books anytime and anyplace that we want to.

B) Comic books have all the things a "real" book has--plot, character, conflict, and theme.

C) My family has always been a big family of readers with full bookshelves all over our home.

D) In addition to liking comic books, I also like to read non-fiction adventure stories for boys.

a. sad and lonely
b. outspoken and angry
c. shy yet proud
d. upset yet protective
---
Mrs. Tall stayed in all the next day but went out alone after dark, unaware that though the light in the gatehouse was out the tailor's wife was watching her from the window. She trailed her out of the gate and past two crossroads till Mrs. Tall stopped to knock softly on a gate. The tailor's wife ducked behind a telegraph pole and waited, holding her breath, as if to pounce on a rabbit when it popped out of its burrow.

The gate creaked open. An old woman led out a child.

"All over, is it?" she asked.

Mrs. Tall's answer was inaudible.

"He's had his supper and a sleep," the old woman said. "Take him home quickly now."

The tailor's wife realized that this was the woman who minded their little boy. Her excitement died down as Mrs. Tall turned back to lead her son home. All was silence apart from the sound of their footsteps. The tailor's wife stood motionless behind the telegraph pole till they had gone, then scurried home herself.

The next morning when Mrs. Tall led her son out, her eyes were red. No one would speak to her, but they all saw her red, swollen eyes.
