D.
One character's description of another character's personality
<span>Characterization
is when readers are directly told about the characteristics/personality of a
character I the story. Indirect
characterization is where readers are left to deduce a character’s personality
based upon actions. For instance, if we
read how a character destroys public property for fun, readers could deduce how the
character is antisocial. However,
if readers are blatantly told that a character is antisocial, then this is
an example of direct characterization.
As such, “D” is the best response.

Answer:
Comfort and warmth.
That the father feels very comfortable digging.
Explanation:
<em>Digging</em> is a poem written by Seamus Heaney, describing the life of the speaker through the act of potato digging which was the primary means of livelihood in Ireland. The poem compares the lives of the speaker, his father, and his grandfather.
The word <em>"nestled" </em>is used in the first line of the fourth stanza- <em>"The coarse boot nestled on the lug"</em>. The word in itself is typically associated with <u>warmth and comfort, safety, and peace</u>. And the speaker's use of this word to describe how his father's boots were <em>"nestled on the lug"</em> seems to suggest that his father felt comfortable and safe in the work he is doing, that of digging potatoes.
The word "Yet" sounds appropriate but if this is multiple choice I'd like to know the choices.
