What evidence from the radio broadcast War of the Worlds supports the theme that human vanity can cause problems?

A. PHILLIPS: Good heavens, something's wriggling out of the shadow
like a gray snake. Now it's another one, and another. They look like
tentacles to me. There, I can see the thing's body. It's large, large
as a bear and it glistens like wet leather.

B. PHILLIPS: Then you're quite convinced as a scientist that living
intelligence as we know it does not exist on Mars?
PIERSON: I'd say the chances against it are a thousand to one.

C. PIERSON: I can give you no authoritative information either as
to their nature, their origin, or their purposes here on earth. Of their
destructive instrument I might venture some conjectural
explanation. For want of a better term, I shall refer to the mysterious weapon as a heat ray.

D. PHILLIPS: Can you tell us the meaning of that scraping noise
inside the thing?
PIERSON: Possibly the unequal cooling of its surface.

Plz im willing to put all my points on the line for this so it would be very nice if u guys could (there is also brainliest on the line)think of an intense argument you had or witnessed sometime in your life. close your eyes and remember every detail. to turn this into a dramatic scene you will need to make changes that will make it make more sense to the audience 500-600 words a description of the set up that explains what happened before the scene diction that matches the characters character objectives and obstacles are clearly conveyed a scene that escalates in dramatic intensity diction that is appropriate to the audience words that are not wasted in idle chit chat action (stage directions) that enhance the scene proper formatting for dramatldr i need a 500- 600 word argument that is understandable ot a high school audience
