Explanation:

The bolded text shows Annabeth rushing words as if afraid of being stopped. This indicates strong emotions (intensity of feelings). It doesn't suggest fear at Camp Half - Blood (she says it's her home). Also, there's no indication of revealing a secret. So, it emphasizes the intensity of her feelings.

Answer:

It emphasizes the intensity of Annabeth's feelings.
