Answer:

<u>b. Action</u>

Explanation:

Characterization is a literary device that authors use to develop fictional characters in a story through their description. This characterization can be either direct or indirect. When it is direct, writers directly label a character as something or directly mention their traits, and when it is indirect, authors show the character's personality through dialogue, thoughts, behaviors, actions, and appearance.

The given sentence uses indirect characterization to describe the character, more specifically, it is using <u>action</u> because it is describing Ted's gesture while waiting for the dentist to arrive, in other words, it is describing what the character is doing. This description helps us infer something about him and his personality: He does not feel comfortable with the dentist's arrival, or with the waiting on the dentist's arrival.

B. Overgeneralization

They are saying that "practically every teen cares" but have no real evidence to back that up. They may have polled a small group of teenagers and because the majority of them said they care about animals they generalized that information to represent everyone in the age group. Without a full poll or teens there is no way to know how many do or do not care about the welfare of animals.
