The correct answer is D. "In fact, he declared it was of no use to work on his farm; it was the most pestilent little piece of ground in the whole country..."

Explanation:

Indirect characterization refers to showing the traits of a character including personality, appearance, values, etc. through the character's actions, words, and decisions. This is the opposite of direct characterization in which the character is directly described.

Option D is an example of indirect characterization because by showing the action of the character " he declared it was of no use to work on his farm" the reader can know this character is lazy or does not like to work, which means the narrator uses the actions of the character to show how the character is.

What do stories reveal about human condition
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

At the end of the day, what makes us human becomes the things writers write about and the things readers connect to. This is why we study the human condition, which is the positive or negative aspects of being human, such as birth, growth, reproduction, love, and death.
