Answer:

The main character trait of the fir tree was 'impatient.'

Explanation:

'The Fir Tree' is a short story written by Hans Christian Anderson. The story is about a little fir tree who always desired more and never stopped to enjoy what he had at present. When he was little, he desired to be a grown tree, and when he grew up he desired to be the tallest among all fir tree.

Through the story, the main character trait that the fir tree showed was being impatient. The Fir Tree was so tetchy that when he was little, he always thought of growing up. He was so engrossed in the thought of growing up that he forgot to enjoy the place where he was. The story describes that he was at the good place, where the sun shone bright on him, he had plenty of fresh air. But he envied large and full-grown fir trees and desired to out-grow them.

<u>Textual evidences:</u>

<em>"The place he had was a very good one: the sun shone on him: as to fresh air, there was enough of that, and round him grew many large-sized comrades, pines as well as firs. </em><em>But the little Fir wanted so very much to be a grown-up tree.</em><em>"</em>

<em>"  "Oh! Were I</em><em> but such a high tree as the others are</em><em>," sighed he."</em>

<em>" "</em><em>To grow and grow, to get older and be tall</em><em>," thought the Tree --"that, after all, is the most delightful thing in the world!" "</em>
