Answer:

A. Youth

Explanation:

Characterization is a process of giving traits and personality to a character by the author. There are two types of characterization: direct and indirect.

Direct characterization is, as the name suggests, when the author directly states the character's traits.

Indirect characterization is when character's traits and personality need to be infered from his actions, words, manner of speaking etc.

Here, the question is to find which Harold's characteristic is revealed using DIRECT characterization.

That can be seen from "By the light of a candle, a YOUNG man in tousled hair and dressing gown is writing furiously at a little table."

The author directly and precisely states that Harold is a young man.

Explain how u can use surrounding words to figure out the meaning of exhilarating
Bond [772]
You can look at the words in front and behind it, because they refer to this big word. You may find a synonym of the word or a close reference. So for example in this sentence: I was excited and ambitious to learn about cars today. So this is a easy example. You can use exited to define ambitious if you dont know what ambitious means.
