Answer:

<u>he was confused</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Note, we are told that, "Anthony awoke to laughing and applauding," in other words, he woke up by an unusual action, "laughing and applauding". This causes Anthony to wonder confusingly what had occurred, which fits in with the definition of the word, "quizzical".

The word quizzical is an adjective that is often used to denote the expression of someone who appears to be confused or amused.

How should a reader analyze indirect characterization? Select four options.
egoroff_w [7]

This is how a reader should analyze indirect characterization-

- describing the character by noticing how the character interacts with other characters.

- by noticing details about what the character says, does, and thinks.

- by noticing how the other characters perceive the character.

- by noticing statements the narrator makes about the character’s appearance.

<h3>What is characterization?</h3>

Characterization is the portrayal of people (or other living things) in dramatic and literary works. Character development is occasionally used interchangeably. This portrayal may employ direct techniques, such as attributing qualities in commentary or description, as well as indirect (or "dramatic") techniques that ask readers to draw conclusions about individuals' traits based on their behavior, speech, or appearance. A character is a personage like that. Character is a component in literature. The 19th century saw the invention of the word "characterization."
