Read this excerpt from "vern" by gwendolyn brooks. a pup will let you look at him, and even let you hold his little wiggly warmness-- and let you snuggle down beside. nor mock the tears you have to hide. what is the tone of this excerpt?

1grateful
2 hyper
3 adoring
4 sad

I would say that the tone is adoring.

Explanation:

The author is expressing their adoration and fondness in description for the animal.

answer: inference

explanation:

an inference can be understood as a conclusion to which a person is able to get based on reasoning. it is the same as a deduction, a guess, an assumption.   in the sentence presented, the conjunction "but" gives the readers an idea of contrast, and, therefore, allows them to induce that despite the opponent's characteristics, andrea had something different that made her win.

caminas makes the most sense here since it means to walk.
