Decide whether each word creates mood in the passage.

“Then you don’t have anything to be “concerned” about.” Mother Lois maneuvered through the unusually heavy traffic. “I don’t know where all the “cars” could have come from,” she said. We both craned our “necks”, “curious” about all the “unfamiliar” cars and people. Certainly there had never before been so many white people driving down the streets of “our” quiet, tree-lined neighborhood.
