Amber writes a narrative in which a boy named Caleb gets a job working at a bookstore. While he is working there, he notices Alicia, another employee, stealing money from the cash register. Caleb isnt sure what to do. He tells himself that perhaps he was mistaken and Alicia didn't really take the money. Then he sees her stealing money a second time.

What tone will Amber most likely use in the conclusion?

a. serious
b. tragic
c. humorous
d. frightening

1 answer

a. serious

Given the context of the narrative, which involves a moral dilemma and the act of stealing, a serious tone would be most appropriate for the conclusion. Amber would likely want to convey the weight of Caleb's internal conflict and the implications of Alicia's actions.
