To determine the part of speech of the italicized words in each sentence, we need to understand their function in the sentence. Here's how to determine the answer for each sentence:

1) The word "YET" in this sentence is used as a conjunction, linking two contrasting ideas. Therefore, the correct answer is conjunction.

2) The word "OH" is used as an interjection here, expressing surprise or emotion. Therefore, the correct answer is interjection.

3) The word "SUDDENLY" modifies the verb "surprised" and indicates the manner in which the surprise occurred. Therefore, the correct answer is adverb.

4) The word "BEFORE" is used as a preposition here, indicating the time prior to using the help program. Therefore, the correct answer is preposition.

5) The word "THROUGH" indicates movement and modifies the verb "allow." Therefore, the correct answer is adverb.

6) The word "OUTSIDE" in this sentence is used as an adjective because it describes the location of the action. Therefore, the correct answer is adjective.
