Answer:
The children were cold and had not eaten
Explanation:
Nowhere in this excerpt has there mentioned a father leaving the family. The family that brought the gifts was not described as pitying the poor family. The excerpt doesn't say that the woman would soon die from her illness.
In situations like this, don't assume something that the passage didn't say.
It would be "A character with a very simple or two-dimensional personality." and "a character who doesn't change throughout the story." Hope this helps! ^-^
The second one, it has a capital letter and a full stop which is needed.
D. Good for doing research.
The participle is "digging." Most participles end in -ing. It modifies "man", describing what the man is doing.
