Answer: I would contend that the right answer is the A) It is also delicious.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can also be added that although you have not provided the underlined portion of the sentence, it is possible to guess that the question is referring to the second part of it, when the student is describing fruit as "yummy." Since this letter is addressed to the principal of the school, the student should be using a formal and appropriate language, as he does in the first part of the sentence, employing words such as "nutritious" and "energizing." "Delicious" is a more appropriate option than "yummy." Replacing "yummy" for the other three alternatives would not be the best revision, since they all sound more informal.

Which excerpt from The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street is an example of direct characterization?
SashulF [63]
<span>The screen door opens and Goodman comes out, a man in his early forties who first greets them smiling and then letting the smile fade as he sees the faces.

</span>

Direct characterization is when the author directly tells readers of some trait or characteristic of a character instead of letting readers conclude anything about a character based upon a character’s actions.  If we look at all of the possible answers for this question, all except speak of actions that lead readers to determine characteristics.  One, however, blatantly speaks of how old a person is.  With the words, “a man in his early forties,” the author directly tells readers about the character, thus, the second answer is an example of direct characterization.
