FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What word would you use to describe the tone of this passage? Just when I thought things could not get more ridiculous, Rebecca's little terrier, all dressed up in its knitted blue winter outfit, poked its head out of the pink polka dot doggy tote!

Options: Bitter, Respectful, Objective, Humorous

Back

Humorous
