A
melancholic
B
joyful
C
respectful
D
casual

Explanation

Amir’s day includes several positive events: he enjoys breakfast, earns the highest quiz score, and sets a personal best in track. These details show that he feels happy, so “joyful” is the best choice. “Melancholic” means sad, while “respectful” and “casual” do not describe his mood here.
