Read the excerpt from Kaydee's personal narrative.

"What are you doing, Kaydee?" Aunt Mary shrieked. "You're going to set the house on fire!"

I couldn't help but roll my eyes. I struck another match. "Aunt Mary, I'm just trying to get the stove started. Calm down. The starter is broken again, and I just have to light the gas." Aunt Mary wrung her hands and paced back and forth in front of the door to the kitchen, up and down the hall, unable to be in the same room with a lit match.

How does the dialogue develop the characters in this paragraph? Select two options.
