Choose the phrase that best creates an angry, blaming tone in the sentence.

couldn’t do track
couldn’t run anymore
had to leave the team
was robbed of track

Respuesta :

The answer is “robbed of track” because you are looking for an angry and blaming tone. When expressing that you’re being robbed of something you’re most likely going to be angry about it. Hope this helps! :))

Answer:

I used to like  being called a “Rabbit,” after our school mascot, when I ran on our school track team, but I was robbed of track when the district cut our budget.

Explanation:

We want to create an angry, blaming tone in the sentence. Therefore, the best choice is "was robbed of track." The verb "rob," which means to steal, has a negative connotation and shows that the person feels like something was unrightfully taken away from him or her. This obviously made him or her angry.  

The other options would work in the sentence, but they don't create the same angry tone.
