The correct answer is D) "Her husband was continually prying about to detect her secret hoards."

Indirect characterization means that we have to infer what a particular character is like, based on their behavior or thoughts. The author just implies things about their character, and we have to deduce what they are actually like. On the other hand, direct characterization is when the author explicitly tells us what a certain character is like, which is the case in A, B, and C.

Answer:

Social Emotional Learning

Social Emotional Learning has started to make major headlines.  It is starting to become standard in schools all across the United States.  

Here is a link from one organization, that gives an example of some cities where it is taking place: https://casel.org/wallace-sel-districts/

Social Emotional learning is the much-debated concept of education including a child's emotional and mental status, instead of only their knowledge of something.  It is very much associated with Competency based learning.

It will definitely impact the world now and in the future because some schools are starting to redefine what education means, and what the role of a school is.  This issue is going to continue to become a more widespread topic of debate in the near future.

What symbolism is found in this excerpt from James Joyce's "Araby"? North Richmond Street, being blind, was a quiet street excep
Goryan [66]

The correct answer is <em><u>option A and option C.</u></em>  In the excerpt, the "school setting the kids free" symbolizes the boys being set free from Church and its impositions. The blind street symbolizes the aimless and drab life on North Richmond Street. Araby is a short story written by James Choice and published on 1914. It is the story of how a boy gets infatuated with a girl, that he wants to buy her a present from the Araby Bazaar. The story is filled with religious and church symbolism. When the narrator says that "North Richmond Street is blind" he is expressing the aimless and dull lifestyle of the community, immersed in religion. He is using the street as a representation of his community and how detached he finds himself from it, as his faith is dying.
