Select the passage that has a more disapproving tone.

The minds of the people were agitated with other things, and a kind of sadness and horror at these things sat upon the expressions of even the common people.

Death was before their eyes, and everybody began to think of their graves, not of mirth and diversions.
The "Red Death" had long devastated the country. But Prince Prospero was strangely happy and unconcerned. When his dominions were half depopulated, he summoned a thousand lighthearted friends to his castle. He thoughtlessly believed the external world could take care of itself. In the meantime, it was foolish to grieve, or to think.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Every time a child takes a soft drink, he’s laying the ground work for a dangerous bone disease. No, fizzy and sugary drinks don’t cause osteoporosis. But, because they are often a substitute for a glass of milk, kids are not getting the calcium and vitamin D they need to build a strong skeleton. Many of them also lead a sedentary lifestyle, so they aren’t getting the bone building benefits for vigorous exercise either. These children tend to suffer from brittle bones and tend to suffer from fractures later on in life. They could be at a risk of being diagnosed with osteoporosis at an early age.
