Answer with Explanation:
The audience sees Mr. Frank<em> looking weak</em>. This gives insight on the audience about his age, as it has been narrated,<u><em> "He is gentle, cultured European in his middle years.</em></u>" The audience also sees a cluttered and dusty place, which seems like<em> it was meant to be abandoned</em>, as it has been narrated<em>,</em><u><em> "The rooms are dusty, the curtains in rag</em></u><em>s; Chairs and tables are overturned." </em>Chairs and tables are normally overturned <em>when nobody is using them. </em>The audience also see Mr. Frank carrying a <em>"rucksack,"</em> which means he is going somewhere as it has been narrated ,<u><em>"As he starts back for his rucksack..."</em></u> His moving restlessly shows that he is sad. It is even reinforced when he broke down and cried when he saw<em> a woman's white glove</em> as it has been narrated <u><em>,"He breaks down, crying."</em></u> There must be something special about the white gloves that made him cry. The audience also sees Miep and this gives them a clue that she's young as it has been narrated that<u><em> "She is pregnant"</em></u> and she's seen to have a big belly.
Answer:
I believe that Santiago is dynamic character in "The old man and the sea"
Explanation:
Santiago is an old fisherman in Cuba who, at the beginning of the book, has not caught anything for eighty-four days. Santiago's quest for the great catch that will save his career. Santiago endures a great struggle with a uncommonly large and noble marlin only to lose the fish to rapacious sharks on his way back to land. Santiago ends with his spirit undefeated.
Remember a dynamic character also undergoes changes throughout the narrative, due to conflicts he encounters on his journey. A dynamic character faces trials and tribulations, and takes time to learn from his encounters, his experiences, and his mistakes, as well as from other characters.
So if by any chance you think I am wrong let me know and also think back to the story and try to figure out what characters in the book face "trials" and how that person learns from his/her mistake :) you will do great I believe in you!!
The things that are bold are hints of what your answer should be :) <3
