How is the tone of the passage?
Answer: C
The tone of the passage is light-hearted. It is a simple, playful tale about birds in which the turtle-dove's silly cry 'take two' is repeated and the magpie's answer 'one's enough' makes the humour clear, and the ending explains in a gentle way why birds build different nests.
'Caustic' would be bitter and sharp, 'pessimistic' would be gloomy, and neither of these suits the story. 'Humorous' is close in meaning, but the whole passage reads as light and gentle, which is the word the key gives. The third option is the answer.
