The first paragraph creates which of these moods for the passage?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In the heat of the glowing July afternoon, the room, with blinds carefully closed, was full of a great calm. From the three windows, through the cracks of the old wooden shutters, came only a few scattered sunbeams which, in the midst of the obscurity, made a soft brightness that bathed surrounding objects in a diffused and tender light. It was cool here in comparison with the overpowering heat that was felt outside, under the fierce rays of the sun that blazed upon the front of the house.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know if it would be peaceful or solemn.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I would say peaceful.

OpenStudy (gk99):

Peaceful! By use of the words calm, soft, bathed and cool. If it were solemn, the paragraph would have used the words serious, stern, grave etc
