People who don’t know Harry tend to underestimate him. They cast a skeptical eye on his typical outfit: ragged jeans and shirts

that bear evidence of his most recent meal. And his most frequently uttered expression, “Waaaal, I just don’t know,” can make him sound less than bright. So, some enter a negotiating session with Harry relaxed and confident that their side will prevail and that Harry will gain no concessions for his group. That assumption is one that Harry cultivates, and it is a big, big mistake.

A. direct
B. indirect
C. direct and indirect

The correct answer is the following:<em> option b. The selection used in the question include an indirect type of characterization.</em> Indirect characterization is a literary device used by writers to show the character's personality through actions, speech or his/her/it appearance. The reader gather all of this information to form a notion on what type of personality the main character has.

In the excerpt provided in the question, the writer tells how people underestimate Harry based on his fashion choices and his recurrent speech. The writer is not directly telling the reader Harry's personality, but by his indirect characterization the reader can start to understand how Harry's personality is.

Answer:

Argh! I can't remember a single thing! I feel slightly nauseous due to the fact that I must have eaten something bad. I just read an assigned chapter of an economics book. Normally I am so intrigued in economics as I really enjoy studying it but today I just don't feel in the mood. I can't remember a single thing that I read in the book. I guess I do deserve a break after studying so hard the past week. I flop down on my bed and immediately fall deep asleep.

Describe the relationship between Kambili and Amaka. Why is there a strong conflict between the two?
Lapatulllka [165]

Again Amaka assumes that Kambili is being snobby and looking down on Nsukka, when actually Kambili is never allowed to do anything fun. Ifeoma and her children are more casual and confident with their bodies, as they don't have the guilt Papa has instilled in his children.

hope this helps

Old Man Warner says, "Used to be a saying about ‘Lottery in June, corn be heavy soon.'" What does this seem to reveal about the
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

This seems to reveal that the original purpose of the lottery was to offer a human sacrifice to ensure a good harvest.

Explanation:

"The Lottery" is a short story by author Shirley Jackson. Every June, in a rural village, someone is picked through a lottery. Instead of winning a prize, that person is stoned to death by the other villagers.

<u>Not much is said to reveal when this custom began or why. The hint of its original purpose is given by the character Old Man Warner, a proud survivor of 76 lotteries. Old Man Warner criticizes the towns and cities that have given up on the lottery. He'd rather keep his blind faith and tradition. He is the one who says, "Used to be a saying about 'Lottery in June, corn be heavy soon.'" This line reveals the lottery probably started as a way to provide human sacrifice to ensure a good harvest. It was so long ago that the villagers have forgotten such a purpose, keeping the lottery going simply out of habit.</u>
