Step-by-step explanation:

Come to a complete halt when you reach a period.

( Once we reach the period, it means complete halt. The sentence ends there and needs a pause. )

Pause briefly when you reach a comma, and pause a bit longer at a semicolon.

( Commas require brief pause whereas a semicolon demands a little longer pause than the comma. Both these are basic rules of punctuation)

Raise your volume when you read a sentence with an exclamation point to show excitement.

( Exclamation means excitement and requires to raise volume to show surprise, disgust, shock etc)
