Question

Read the following passage:
Grandfather taught us the prayers they would say for the
corn harvest each year. As he talked, he rattled a few dried
kernels in one of his wrinkled hands. I tried to picture those
hands sowing seeds long ago, when Grandfather and the
other Wampanoag people lived in Massachusetts.
Which detail most clearly gives this passage a reflective tone?

Answer 1

Answer:

I tried to picture those hands sowing seeds long ago, when Grandfather and the other Wampanoag people lived in Massachusetts.

Explanation:

This is the detail that most clearly gives this passage a reflective tone. In these lines, the author talks about his grandfather, and the stories he use to tell. We learn that the grandfather is Native American, and the stories cause the speaker to reflect on the past of these people and the experiences that they have gone through.
