Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not sure... but reading the passage he is pretty energetic and confident about what he is saying. Too much energy for it to be A, he doesn't seem too angry but B is a possible answer. C wouldn't work since he isn't acting grumpy or anything, and E wouldn't be right either.
