Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A: She's not saying anything about how right or wrong fireworks might be. Not A

B: She is emotional. But she's also level headed. She finds a way of saying what she means. Not B.

C: Just because a statement has a question mark behind it doesn't mean it is a question. My Math teacher used to say that to us all the time. Anyway, I don't think this is a real question. Not C.

DI This is the answer. She means the exact opposite of what she is saying.
