Which statement best explains how the underlined

words and phrases contribute to the meaning of the
play?
LINDNER (taking off his glasses): Well-I don't suppose
that you feel...
WALTER: Never mind how I feel-you got any more to
say 'bout how people ought to sit down and talk to each
other?... Get out of my house, man.
He turns his back and walks to the door.
LINDNER (looking around at the hostile faces and
reaching and assembling his hat and briefcase): Well-I
don't understand why you people are reacting this way.
What do you think you are going to gain by moving into a
neighborhood where you just aren't wanted and where
some elements-well-people can get awful worked up
when they feel that their whole way of life and everything
they've ever worked for is threatened.
-A Raisin in the Sun,
Lorraine Hansberry
