Answer: Because they are exploiting she and her step-mother.
Explanation:
Gretel is the titular character in the short story, <em>''Gretel''</em> by <em>Garrison Keillor</em>. Gretel believes that her drunk of a father is exploiting both she and her stepmother and so dislikes him.
Gretel is also a writer but her brother covets her profits from publishing a book and wants the lion share for himself whilst giving her a meagre amount. The lawyer ensures that this happens by putting Gretel under a spell that made her sign a contract that gave her brother his wish. This makes her hate both her brother and the lawyer.

Answer: I would contend that the right answer is actually "to fake."
Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that one of the meanings of the verb to affect is to feign, which can be translated as to pretend or to give a false appearance of something. If the character was trying to "conceal certain inconvenient emotions" which, nevertheless, "seemed inclined to assert themselves" by affecting high spirits, he was, therefore, faking those high spirits, in order to hide his true feelings from the people who had just arrived.
