Select the line from the excerpt that shows a worried tone. I'm 17 years old. I'm not a straight-A student or anything. Even so, I figured out how to make an Internet that they can't wiretap. I figured out how to jam their person-tracking technology. I can turn innocent people into suspects and turn guilty people into innocents in their eyes. I could get metal onto an airplane or beat a no-fly list. I figured this stuff out by looking at the web and by thinking about it. If I can do it, terrorists can do it. They told us they took away our freedom to make us safe. Do you feel safe?

    If I can do it, terrorists can do it.

    Explanation:

    In these lines, the purpose of the speaker is to arise fear and worry among the readers. At the beginning of the passage, the reader concentrates on her skills and actions as she builds up her story. However, when she gets to this sentence, she introduces the idea of terrorists, and the fact that they can do everything she can do. In this line, the speaker shows her worry for her safety and that of others.

    The line that shows a worried tone is: "If I can do it, terrorists can do it."

    Explanation:

    This line illustrates how easy it is for someone with the basic skills, a teenager in this case, to jeopardize security. The whole set of lines before build momentum for this line which expresses concern about the safety and possible abuse of freedom.
