Answer:
A.Direct Characterization
Explanation:
When the narrator states facts about a character’s personality
Ex. “The patient boy and quiet girl were both well-mannered and did not disobey their mother.”
The author is directly telling the audience the personality of these two children. The boy is “patient” and the girl is “quiet.” Both are “well-mannered.”
When an author uses direct characterization, the reader doesn’t have to do any “detective work”
I know that a theme statement is generally the message or the overall lesson learned of a story or informative essay. So, out of the answer choices given, the complete sentence exploring universal human emotions would not want to be considered for developing the theme, because it mostly has nothing to do with the theme at all.But then again, it may be the statement regarding an individual society, judging on what you are writing about. my opinion is that it is D, but I could be wrong.
