Answer:

Characterization

Explanation:

In this excerpt, the author develops the characterization of the Lin family by revealing that they followed Chinese traditions and their usual methods of cooking and eating. This literary device consists of developing fictional characters in a story by revealing characters' physical appearance, personality, interests, or motifs in a direct way, for example, by making straightforward statements about a character's personality or traits, or in an indirect way, by revealing a character's personality through the description of their habits, relationships, dialogues, etc.

What form of characterization is most often used in drama?
Natali5045456 [20]

The correct answer is:

Indirect characterization

<em>Indirect characterization</em> is the process how the writer shows the personality of the characters indirectly, not indicating explicitly which actor represents the character, but through speech, actions and appearance. Drama plays usually don't have a narrator describing each character, so the audience has to gather the type of person the character is based on their behaviour.

Find the error with subject-verb agreement. Select the incorrect verb and type it correctly. As the judges tally the final score
Nutka1998 [239]

Along With and As Well As Do Not Form Plural Subjects

Beware of words that join but do not qualify as true conjunctions and thus do not form plural subjects. These words include as well as, along with, together with, not to mention, and others. Again, another example from New Fowler:

A very profitable company such as British Telecom, along with many other companies in the UK, is not prepared to pay a reasonable amount. New Fowler, p. 35.

Neither-Nor, Subject-Verb Agreement

The problem of subject-verb agreement also crops up when you use correlative conjunctions. When you use neither . . . nor to join two subjects of a clause, you will confront the problem of number. Must the verb appear in the singular or the plural? When neither . . . nor joins two singular subjects, the verb must be singular as well. Like this:

Neither the player nor the coach wants to lose the game.
