Which descriptive phrase from the scenario best represents irritation?

"An abrupt snap"

The use of the word "abrupt" gives context as to how the action was done. The previous phrase, has Tim saying that he will have to be the "grown-up". This is because he knows that his friends are swimming and having fun, while he is going to have to clean up for them.

This phrase could be read as if Tim was sighing, making him upset. That is the reason why he then proceeds to open the bag violently, showing that he's angry.

i would say that these are the two thesis statements best for a literary analysis essay on recurring themes in shakespeare's romeo and juliet:

1.  in romeo and juliet, shakespeare demonstrates that love comes in a variety of forms, be it romantic, familial, or between friends.

2.  shakespeare explores the struggle for identity through the character of juliet in his play romeo and juliet.

the other theses aren't reoccurring in this play. 

explanation:

the answer is a)   a sentence of death costs the state "almost three times as much as a sentence of life in prison" (delon 147)
