Explanation:

• "go with her emotions and demand the topic be changed" is likely to cause more conflict.
• "remain silent and do not participate" won't solve the problem and may make the situation worse.
• "express her frustration to other people in class" doesn't address the core issue of the group project topic.
• "try to control her emotions while sharing her opinion with the group" is a more constructive approach as it allows for communication in a calm way which can potentially lead to a better solution for the group project.

Answer:

try to control her emotions while sharing her opinion with the group
