“How could this have happened? What will you do? Oh, I am so worried for you,” Aunt Amrita said, her voice trembling as tears ro
lled down her cheeks. “Please, return the money and beg forgiveness. You don’t know what they are capable of. I don’t want you to get hurt. Please, just do as I say!” Through this passage, we learn that the aunt has a soft heart. Which of the following is true? This is an example of using a story map. This is an example of theme. This is an example of indirect characterization. This is an example of telling through description.
Since we learn that the aunt has a soft heart, I will say that 'this is an example of indirect characterization', because we learn of her characteristics in an indirect way, that is, we are not directly told that she has a soft heart, we can infer that information from this passage.
