Answer:
C. Uncle John was one of the people in charge of the family.
Explanation:
Direct characterization is a literary device consisting of making direct statements about a character's personality, interests, motif, or physical appearance instead of revealing their traits through indirect means such as dialogue and description of behavior.
Unlike the other options, Option C indicates a true direct characterization about Uncle John (Option A, B and D make false statements about John): The author tells us that John is one of the natural rulers of the family, and one of the heads of the family, so “he had to govern.”
Answer:
D
Explanation:
D- <em>A smile started at the edges of his mouth as he labored on his creation. He called me over. "Mijo, get my colors and the glue."</em> is the only detail that shows love. In this case, it expresses love between a father and son.
Because of details like 'a smile' and 'Mijo' we can infer the father is happy to see the son. Here, love is expressed in their own way. :)
Do you have any options to go with this?
