In this sentence, Carson mostly uses a _________ tone.

anonymous · Answer

cautious

peaceful

frightened

melancholic

anonymous · Answer

I think it is cautious but the context is peaceful and also frightened seems right. 
I guess i could just eliminate D

anonymous · Answer

Why do you think it sounds frightening?

anonymous · Answer

maybe the foxes are frightening to the deers

anonymous · Answer

what do u think @AnswerMyQuestions  ?

anonymous · Answer

No, I don't believe so. :/

anonymous · Answer

I would also eliminate B and D. It would not be frightened, because if that was the case, the phrase should have shown the reaction of the deers when they were spotted by the foxes. Hence I vote for A.
