<u>Indirect characterization</u> reveals the personality of a character through thoughts, dialogue, actions, or physical appearance, which subtly develop and add layers to a character.

  • <u>Example:</u> <em>"Anne was holding the pen, </em><em>slowly nailing it on her skin</em><em>, wondering about the pages she had left"</em>. This <u>subtly</u> and indirectly states how Anne reacts every time she does homework with <u>action</u>.

On the other hand, <u>direct characterization</u> refers to the <u>descriptions </u>(usually through adjectives) that directly reveal how a character is, behaves, thinks, or looks.

  • <u>Example:</u> <em>"Anne was always </em><em>angry</em><em> when she did her homework"</em>. This <u>directly</u> states Anne's behavior whenever she did homework with the adjective <em>"angry"</em>.

Direct characterization is when an author clearly states in the text what kind of personality the character has. For example, if the author writes " Cidney was always sad" That would be direct characterization. Indirect characterization would be " Cidney always seemed to be frowing or pouting" which would then lead you to believe she's always sad. Both of those examples pretty much mean the same thing exept one is direct and the other is making you infer.

Which word from list 1 best completes this analogy laboratory:campus
ioda

The correct answer is C. Faculty

Explanation:

An analogy is a correspondence or comparison between one element or set of elements and another which in most cases aimed at showing the similarities between the elements that compose the analogy. This means an analogy occurs when two elements relate in the same way or the characteristics of an element are transferred to another. In the case of the example presented in the question "laboratory:campus" it suggests the laboratory belongs to the campus, is part of the campus or can be found in the campus, which means the second analogy should accomplish the same feature of belonging, being part or being found to create a correspondence or similarity between both elements. Because of this the best option that completes the analogy is "professor: faculty" as in the same way of "laboratory: campus" the professor somehow belongs to the campus, can be found there or is part of the campus in terms of staff, this means in this way both elements "professor: faculty" and "laboratory: campus" express the same relationship and therefore there is a correspondence or analogy.
