Answer:

The main features of naturalism in April Showers include a fairly accurate social analysis and the presence of a narative that sought to prove some aspect of the nature of human beings in society. In the case of April Showers, the main characteristic was Theodora's determinism.

Explanation:

In "April Showers" Theodora is determined to publish her story that would shake the depths of human nature, as she says. Although everything seems to go as planned, Theodora's fate does not go as expected and her story is not published.

This reflects characteristics of naturalism which is a more exaggerated realism and which mainly covers the problems of the reality of the characters.
