Answer:

d. it makes it feel as if you're shouting at the reader

Step-by-step explanation:

Exclamation Point

An exclamation point (!) at the end of a sentence expresses excitement or emphasis. When you emphasize something, you want it to really stand out.

• It’s a home run!

• You’re driving too fast!

• Watch out!

Don’t use too many exclamation points when you write. A sentence with an exclamation point is like shouting. Shouting can be irritating in person—and in your writing
