Placing “state leaders” in quotation marks indicates that the writer is mocking the lawmakers.
By placing "state leaders" in quotation marks, the speaker is indicating his/her displeasure with the decision to consider overturning the law that forbids the sale of lottery tickets on Sundays. The other options do not work as a correct answer. First, in option A, there are no first person pronouns. Option C states that giving the reason behind the bill shows the speaker's anger - it does not. It merely gives additional information as to why they would overturn the bill. The comparison of the lottery to gambling is not factual evidence.
This is an external conflict. An external conflict happens between a character, in this case the employee, and some external obstacle or challenge. This challenge can be a person, animal, thing, or something a bit more abstract like a deadline.

To correct answer choice B, it would be:
