An author can develop a character by _____. giving a physical description using the character's speech or thoughts using another
jeka94
All of the above can help to develop a character. A reader will have a clearer image of the character if they are given a description of what the character looks like. We also know who they are as individuals if we know their thoughts or hear them speak. Other characters' opinions of this character can also help to develop them, because we learn who the character is through other peoples' eyes. Hope this helps.

THE UNSPOKEN HISTORY BEHIND A SURNAME
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

"The Unspoken History Behind a Surname" is an article written by Lolly Bowean. The author through this article shares her experience when people inquire about the origin of her surname.

The author writes that when people probe her about her origin, at times it is painful to discuss it. As it will mean to go back to the times of enslavement and the legacy of Americans. The author says that when, once a lady asked her about her origin and she explained to her how Boweans came from through the marrriage of 'Norwoods' and 'Wakefields', the lady almost whispered that 'they were whites.'

<u>The author then recalls how difficult it becomes, at times, to discuss about her origin as the baggage of race comes upon her. She says that though she is not ashamed of her enslaved ancestors, but people rarely wants to discuss about the history</u>.

So, the correct answer is option D.
