Because his parents beat him
Well, selfless is a word to describe when someone is putting someone else before them. This includes police men putting their life on the line to rescue some hostages from a building. Or someone helping someone out of a burning car.
The correct option is “honest portrayal”. Realism is an artistic style that emerged in the 19th century in France, especially in painting and writing. The main purpose of realism is to portray accurately real life and places. Realism is opposed to the Romantic movement so the option “romanticized life experience” is not a characteristic of realism. Exaggeration and melodrama are not related to Realism since it depicts reality in a detailed and honest perspective.
