The words that best describe the tone of Barbara Jordan's speech are Option B: respectful and reasoned.

Explanation:

The speech that Barbara Jordan, a representative from Texas gave to the House Judiciary Committee in 1974 spoke of the constitutional basis for impeachment of Richard Nixon.  Her speech was respectful and reasoned because she spoke of not engaging "upon this process for petty reasons." She also stated at the end of her speech "It is reason, and not passion, which must guide our deliberations, guide our debate, and guide our decision." She was reminding her colleagues of the House Judiciary Committee that there was a Constitutional basis for impeachment because Nixon asked his aides to commit perjury, and concealed information, and disregarded grand jury proceedings along with other offenses.
