Mr. Home was a stern-featured—perhaps I should rather say, a hard-featured man: his forehead was knotty, and his cheekbones were
marked and prominent. The character of his face was quite Scotch; but there was feeling in his eye, and emotion in his now agitated countenance. His northern accent in speaking harmonised with his physiognomy. He was at once proud-looking and homely-looking. He laid his hand on the child's uplifted head. She said—"Kiss Polly."

The description of Mr. Home in paragraph 10 primarily serves to
(Choice A)A
demonstrate the duality of his character.
(Choice B)B
emphasize his hard, cold nature.
(Choice C)C
show the strong and obvious love he has for Paulina.
I would say A because the author explains on how masculine he looks and how tough he is but then it switches to him showing his affection for his wife and how he is actually soft inside. Of course I can be wrong but hey I've never took the SAT's before
