Answer from: Fatoucham1200

She is extremely irritated and we can see that because she hangs up and slams the phone angrily.

Explanation:

The question refers to the play "Sorry, Wrong Number". At the beginning of the play we are introduced to Mrs. Stevenson, who is trying to reach her husband via phone calls. The calls are not completed successfully, which makes Mrs. Stevenson more and more nervous. She is so irritated that she gives up on completing the call and slams the phone hard showing how angry and furious she is.

Answer from: ladeshak5981

As the scene begins, Mrs. Stevenson is feeling irritated and also fustrated because she is unable to reach the number she was dialing- actually her husband's office line.

We know this because in her fustration and irritation, she slams down the phone.

Below is an excerpt from the text that explains her condition:

Mrs. Stevenson is dialing a number on the phone as the curtain rises. She listens to the phone, slams down the receiver in irritation... She reaches for her pill bottle, pours herself a glass of water, shakes out a pill, swallows it, then reaches for the phone again, dials the number nervously.

Explanation:

"Sorry, Wrong Number" is a play written by Lucille Fletcher.

It tells the story of a murder case which was planned by the husband of Mrs. Stevenson which was unknown to Mrs. Stevenson. Mrs. Stevenson overheard the conversation of the murderers but never knew she was to be the victim. She tried her possible best to stop the unknown victim from being murdered.

the answer is:

when will (v) the books (n) be (v) due?

nouns refer to people (other than pronouns), places and things, whereas verbs describe actions and are usually part of the predicate of a sentence. finally, pronouns can work as nouns and identify the participants in speech.

in the example sentence, "will" is a verb part or auxiliary verb, "be" is an infinitive verb and "books" is a plural noun.
