Question

LINDNER (taking off his glasses): Well—I don't suppose that you feel . . .

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct Answer is A. Linder's tone is desperate and abrupt.

Explanation:

Linder goes on and said this "What do you think you are going to gain by moving into a neighborhood where you just aren't wanted and where some elements—well—people can get awful worked up when they feel that their whole way of life and everything they've ever worked for is threatened."

Hope this helped you :)

Answer 2

Well, you notice how Lindner is very hesitant in his speech? That shows that he’s pretty reluctant to have to deal with the conflict of moving this family into that neighborhood. He’s at his wits end and he doesn’t understand why people are reacting the way they do or how to satisfy everyone in this situation. He’s not a man who deals well with conflict, but he’s also definitely not apologizing for feeling the way he feels. Rather, he’s frustrated that they’re not seeing it from his side, y’see? He’s not angry, though, as he tries to stay cordial even while explaining how he sees it. It’s almost more like he’s whining, a little?? lol

Anyways, I think the answer is desperate and abrupt. Hope this helped, and if not, I’m really sorry!!
