Amal walked into the store and asked the shopkeeper for a book about cars. Amal loved cars. He told the shopkeeper that he wante
d to build cars and race them too. Which statement is true?This is an example of how a writer develops theme.B.This is an example of dialogue.C.This is an example of the writer telling through description rather than showing through dialogue.D.This is an example of how a writer develops the setting
"He told the shopkeeper that he wanted to build cars" is the key phrase here.
There's no dialogue, just a description of part of the conversation. That is mainly the goal of the author in this excerpt: to show this conversation. That's why Amal searches for a book about cars and talks to the shopkeeper.
There's no theme being developed. The author is revealing something about the character. There's no dialogue, therefore it's not an example of a dialogue. And there's nothing about the setting, it is about the characters.
The correct answer is:
C.This is an example of the writer telling through description rather than showing through dialogue
The primary attribute of the characters in morality plays reflects the fact that these plays were naive allegories is the fact that the characters are often very simplified.
