The answer is A., it makes it feel as if you're shouting at the reading. Exclamation marks are used to show lots of emotion, as sometimes it is also used for shouting.

B., C., and D. all are completely not related.
Your opinion can be expressed with exclamation marks, it won't confuse anyone. Like I said, exclamation marks are used to show lots of fire and emotion. It wouldn't confuse anyone.

Exclamation marks do not confuse the main point. The reasoning for why it isn't C is similar to the reasoning for B. Exclamation marks do not change the main point.

C. is pretty much the opposite. Exclamation marks are used for emotions, not to show no emotion.

Alexus [3.1K]

<span>"Using these words lets Hamilton associate the executive and legislative branches with war and taxes, both of which will be viewed negatively by readers, so that his argument in favor of a strong judicial branch will be viewed positively."</span>

Hamilton wanted people to support his plan, so he wanted to make sure that regular people had positive feelings about the words he was using. Everyone had just been through a war, so no one really wanted to hear that word. He uses the word "sword" instead, which is more general and a lot of people owned swords. Instead of using the word "taxes" (again, people really hated the idea of taxes), he uses the word "purse" which again, is something everyone had and had a positive feeling about. Choosing 'sword' and 'purse' was much better than 'war' and 'taxes', so more people supported Hamilton's plan.
