Answer 1

Without the specific excerpt provided, I can't directly identify the highlighted examples. However, in general, one might look for phrases that indicate shock, disbelief, or unexpectedness regarding the attack. For instance, sentences expressing confusion about why the attack was launched or emphasizing the suddenness of the event can indicate surprise. If you have specific sentences or phrases from the excerpt, feel free to share them, and I can help identify which ones demonstrate the United States' surprise.
