From  Caramelo, by Sandra Cisneros

"A bungalow, a duplex, a brownstone, an apartment. Something, anything, because the Grandmother’s gloominess was the contagious kind, infecting every member of the household as fiercely as the bubonic plague".

The figurative language in lines 5 through 7 establishes a tone of

1) loneliness

2)confusion

3)desperation

4)shame

3)desperation

Explanation:

The description of the grandmother´s bad mood like something contagious as a plague shows the desperation the character feels in that situation. The grandmother being unhappy and therefore mean to those who live with her, pushes the narrator and everyone in that family to desperately find somewhere else for her to live.
