The words which best describe the tone of these lines from Sherman Alexie's "The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian" are:

humorous, exaggerated 

The idea that Indians love dancing is described in an exaggerated way because of the phrase "keep dancing until it rained"; expresses humor since it would mean the dancing caused the rain to occur and no stopping at all.

Based on the attached image above taken from "The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian" which is written by Sherman Alexie, the character trait that is being revealed here is UNGLAMOROUS. The answer would be the last option. Looking at the picture, Arnold here seems uncharming, does unusual activities and he lacks excitement. Hope this helps.

Explanation:

“They were laughing at my name.”

“I had no idea that Junior was a weird name.”

Initially, Penelope has no interest in Junior, and even makes fun of his name. Furthermore, when he attempts to engage her, she pretends he doesn't exist. That Halloween, they dress in similar costumes, so Junior takes the opportunity to talk to her, but all in all, she's still not interested.

It isn't until Junior hears her throwing up in the girl's bathroom that they begon to build a relationship. At first, Junior is a supportive listener. She addresses her bullimia, Junior supplies much needed support, and even some advice. After this, they become very close friends. Junior, of course, is in love. He asks Penelope to the dance, she finds out he has no money, and Penelope embraces his problem, in the same way he embraced hers.

Things aren't always easy though, the two encounter racism and disappointment throughout. Penelope because she's white; Junior because he's not.
