life in a tower is tranquil and rare;

I'll certainly never let down my bright hair!)

• The given excerpt is from the poem 'Amanda' written by Robin Klein.
• Here, the speaker is the mother of a little girl.
• The little girl is being pointed out by her mother for different things in the given excerpt.
• The mother here is full of annoyance since her child does not listen to her and is always lost in her thoughts.
• This is primarily evidenced in the third line, "Will you please look at me when I'm speaking to you, Amanda?"
• The statement clearly shows that Amanda, the little girl, is not focusing on her mother's words and is lost in her own thoughts.
• Thus, the speaker's attitude is full of annoyance. Hence, the answer will be option A, full of annoyance.
