Dear Learner,
Your answer is correct, it is "scream with excitement". I don't know how "sighed" appeared as a correct answer but I've just took the test myself and everything seems to be ok, "scream" appears as the correct answer.

The use of ‘immediately’ on its own as a conjunction is not very familiar to me. Normally I use ‘as soon as’. Could you please confirm whether both forms are roughly equally common?

Thank you!
