Explanation:
Characterization in literature is used in order to provide information on characters that the author judges important to share. Its role is to facilitate the reader's understanding of the upcoming events and plots as well as the behavior of<em> </em>the<em> </em>character in question.
Characterization can be <em>explicit </em>(it provides information <em>directly</em>, through the words of another character or the narrator for example) and <em>implicit </em>(informing us <em>indirectly</em>, which means we are to conclude from the character's behavior, appearance etc.).
The correct answer is option 3: "Tonight, Shea read a short story, practiced soccer, and chatted with Betsy". Remember that whenever you need to use parallel structures, you have to use <u>the same tense or word pattern</u>. In option 3, you have three verbs. The three of them are in the past simple tense. Option 1, "Last evening, Shea read "The Necklace", study her physics, and to buy her prom dress" is not grammatically correct. That sentence presents different tenses and the verbs are not well conjugated. Therefore, It is not written in proper parallel structure. Option 2, "Yesterday, Shea bought her dress, had completed her calculus problems, and was talking to Bobby" is not grammatically correct either. Although the sentence is stated in the past, the order of the events is not clear and the verbs do not belong to exactly the same tense. To conclude, option 3 is the only sentence written in proper parallel structure.
The correct answer is D. <span>The chorus comments on the action of the play and clarifies the situation to the audience.
A is incorrect because the chorus isn't one of the characters in the play - other characters cannot see them because the chorus exists only for the readers/watchers of the play. B is incorrect for the same reason. C is incorrect because the opposite is true - the chorus is there to help the audience understand what is going on in the play.
