Answer:
The statement which best describes the use of characterization in this excerpt is:
Anton is directly characterized as kind.
Explanation:
<em>Anton was kind enough to divide it for them. </em>
<u>In the line above, the narrator of the story is telling us that Anton is kind, and that is a perfect example of direct characterization.</u>
<u>Direct characterization happens when the author openly states a character's traits. The opposite would be indirect characterization, which happens when the author uses dialogues, actions, thoughts, and descriptions to tell us about the character. In this case, we have to infer the traits, since they are not explicitly told.</u>
Having that in mind, we can easily say that, in the passage, Anton is directly characterized as kind.
The boxed words are a compound subject.
In a sentence talking about people, the people are subjects of that sentence. Subjects are basically what is being talked about.
Because there are two people being talked about, Bob and Al, the subjects are counted as one, or compounded. This just means that you read the sentence as [Bob and Al] instead of [Bob] and Al.
Compound verbs follow the same concept, but for action words. For example, “to sing and to dance”. However, in this case since the boxed words are subjects, they are a compound subject.
Personal feelings and a first-person point of view are twi characteristics of an autobiography, a self-written account of the life of oneself. :)
The quote is also important in another way, which can't be understood unless we know that Dix Hill is a psychiatric hospital. Brother is saying that if somebody had heard their "crazy" stories, they would have believed they were crazy, too, and sent them for psychiatric therapy
<h3>What is Dix Hill in The Scarlet Ibis?</h3>
Dix Hill, it so transpires, is the standard name for Dorothea Dix Hospital, a psychiatric hospital in Raleigh, North Carolina. It's not likely that Brother would be referencing a psychiatric hospital above of his state, so we can be fairly certain the location is North Carolina.
<h3>What killed Doodle in The Scarlet Ibis?</h3>
Unlike the ibis, Doodle doesn't die because he's been in a hurricane. He overexerts himself rowing, then overexerts himself more by running, and then gets scared when Brother abandons him in the storm. He is in a storm, but he most likely dies as a result of his soul condition.
