Answer:

If your excerpt is "He wandered far from the accustomed haunts of boys...", the correct answers are: B (desperate), H (annoyed), and J (distressed).

Explanation:

Tom is desperate because he has been wrongfully accused and punished by Aunt Polly. But we don't even need to know the context; the excerpt itself shows Tom's despair ("sought desolate places that were in harmony with his spirit", "contemplated the dreary vastness of the stream"). He feels so desperate that he imagines drowning and visualizes Becky mourning him.

He is also annoyed with the injustice that had taken place, and he feels that the world is cold and hollow. Naturally, he is distressed and dramatic like a proper teenager, exaggerating the meaning and importance of this small event.

Answer:

B (desperate), H (annoyed), and J (distressed)
