Question

question 2 of 5
which adjective best describes the tone of endgame?

a. reverent

b. gloomy

c. optimistic

d. overbearing

Explanation:

"Endgame" by Samuel Beckett is a play with themes of despair, isolation, and the futility of existence. A "gloomy" tone fits as the play's atmosphere is bleak. "Reverent" (respectful) doesn't match, "optimistic" (hopeful) is opposite, and "overbearing" (domineering) isn't accurate for its tone.

Answer:

B. Gloomy
