Question 7 of 50

Answer 1

Answer:

O Is a static character.

Explanation:

A static character is one who does not show or undergo any change in their characterization throughout the story. Contrary to the dynamic character that changes or experiences some type of change in the character, a static character remains more or less static/ constant throughout.

In the story "Rip Van Winkle" by Washington Irving, Dame Van Winkle is the wife of the main character Rip Van Winkle. Though there is really no direct characterization of the wife in the story, the narrator mentions her a lot. She is the nagging wife whose constant complains and a barrage of words led to her husband escaping to the woods. And though she may complain, we find no evidence of her ever changed behavior or any change about her really. So, she is a static character.
