spring tide has nothing to do with spring. it means springing fourth. so put happen daily under spring tide & also daily movements of the ocean will go under spring tide.
neap tide is the 1st & 3rd in moon fazing because they are at angles opposite of one another.

Direct characterization is when the author specifically tells the reader the traits of a character. In this excerpt, Dickens tells you that the woman is elderly, wise, experienced and knows what is "good for children". If Dickens had used indirect characterization, he would have need to shown her wisdom and experience by including specific examples. The reader would then be lead to develop his own conclusion about the whether or not the woman was wise and experienced.
