In this excerpt of "Two Kinds", by Amy Tan, the characterization technique that the author uses is <em>Direct Characterization</em>. In Direct Characterization, the author tells us what he or she wants us to know about the character. He writes about the character's physical appearance, actions, attitudes, inner thoughts, and what others think about the character.
Answer:
The sentence that has an inappropriate shift in number is:
If my friend calls, tell them I'm at my violin lesson.
Explanation:
In the sentence "If my friend calls, tell them I'm at my violin lesson," the speaker is at first talking only of one person, which is why he uses "friend" in its singular form. However, later in the sentence, the speaker refers back to the noun "friend" with the pronoun "them", and this is where the inappropriate shift in number happens. "Them" is a plural noun. For the sentence to be correct, the speaker would have to use either "him" or "her" to refer back to "friend".
