Read this excerpt from a play.

hailey (entering from the side door and depositing a full backpack on the table): hi, mom! i’ve got a ton of homework tonight.

mrs. renault (stepping forward and offering a letter for inspection): oh, yeah? well, a letter came for you today. it says it’s from the encore summer institute.

hailey (taking the letter and opening it): i’ve been waiting for this (reading the letter, eyes growing wider). oh, mom, i got in. unbelievable. i can’t, i mean, this is amazing.

mrs. renault (shaking her head and clutching her hands, jaw dropping): read it out loud. .

which line from the play contains dialogue that reveals emotion?

(entering from the side door and depositing a full backpack on the table)
well, a letter came for you today. it says it’s from the encore summer institute.
oh, mom, i got in. unbelievable. i can’t, i mean, this is amazing.
(shaking her head and clutching her hands, jaw dropping)

Oh, Mom, I got in. Unbelievable. I can’t, I mean, this is amazing.

Explanation:

This line shows many different emotions. Hailey shows disbelief with her town of voice because she can't believe she was accepted at the school she wants to attend.

Hailey also showed excitement and shock with her hand movements and dropped jaw.

The other lines do not show emotion because setting the backpack down is a routine action, and saying that a letter arrived is mostly a comment that is made without much emotion or sentiment.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
