Which of the following excerpts from the passage above illustrates description used for characterization? I. “His features are s
trong and masculine, with an Austrian lip and arched nose . . . .” II. “He held his sword drawn in his hand to defend himself, if I should happen to break loose . . . .” III. “His voice was shrill, but very clear and articulate, and I could distinctly hear it when I stood up.”
Either option 1 or 3. It depends on what characterization is referring to. The best choice out of the two deductions would be option 1 because it is describing physical characteristics.
