Answer:
In "The Hike", the reader can infer that the way the narrator depicts the character of Mr. Arseno is a fun easy-going guy. The text states in paragraph 8 "In all the years the Arsenos had been camping, he’d made it clear that the point of being there was to have fun. As Emily watched her father she was pretty sure he wasn’t having any fun." From this you can tell that Mr. Ardeno is not a competitive guy, he likes to have fun and go with the flow. The text also in paragraph 20 says "The Arseno children were tempted to gather snowballs and surprise the latecomers as they topped the ridge, but Emily’s dad made it clear with one look that he didn’t approve of such an idea. She knew, as her father knew, that the length of time it took them to get to the top was embarrassing enough for Mr. McGee without getting a face full of snow, too. " This shows that Mr. Arseno is not one to brag or to boost. This is important because it adds to the theme of the story and builds Mr. Arseno's character.
