Read the passage from "The Caged Bird."

Answer:

scream

Step-by-step explanation:

The tone of a text refers to the sensation that the author wants the reader to feel at the moment the text is being read. This feeling will be evidenced by a word, which expresses this feeling as much as possible, making the reader recognize it at the time of reading. In the text shown above, we can see a tone of despair, terror and exhaustion. This is evidenced by the word "scream," where the reader realizes the agony the bird is going through and the despair of its actions.
