Answer 2

The tone of the excerpt is: nostalgic.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is nothing in the excerpt that reveals resentment, criticism, or humor. The narrator does not talk about the past in a way that shows anger or non-acceptance. Quite the opposite, the narrator speaks plainly and matter-of-factly, simply remembering things as they were. For that reason, we can say the tone is nostalgic. Nostalgia is used to express a feeling one has when reminiscing about the past.
