Question

1. what was the main emotion felt by people standing in soup lines?

humiliation
exhaustion
gratitude
anger

Explanation:

Soup lines were most prominent during the Great Depression, where people who had once been self-sufficient were forced to rely on charity for basic food. The loss of independence and the public nature of seeking handouts led to a pervasive sense of deep embarrassment and shame, which is humiliation. While other emotions might have been present, humiliation was the dominant, widely documented feeling for those in these lines.

humiliation
