Respuesta :

The word in the passage that is the key to understanding Ophelia's tone is: B. AFFRIGHTED.

 Ophelia: alas! my lord, i have been so affrighted. 

This means that she got scared or frightened. Her fear originated from seeing Lord Hamlet disheveled. 

The answer is B Affrighted. It means frightened, and the overall tone of the passage is that anxious frightened feel. The other choices do not reflect an anxious frightened feel.

I just took the test its right.
