Read this excerpt from We’ve Got a Job: The 1963 Children’s March.Occasionally, he would get a special treat. "If you were really, really good at church on Sunday," Wash recalled, "and Momma had some extra money, and after you took your church clothes off, and if everything was just right, we would walk down to Ragland's [Drug Store] sometime and get a scoop of hand-packed ice cream. That was the high point of my life."Which words from the excerpt best convey the tone?
The words “special” and “high point” show how meaningful and exciting the treat was to Wash. Calling the ice cream a “high point of my life” conveys a tone of warm delight and appreciation. The other choices include details about when or how he got the treat, but they do not express the feeling as clearly.
