The correct answer is B. "She knows she is not bright. Like good looks and money, quickness passed her by"

Explanation:

The word characterization refers to the way the personality traits, physical attributes and other elements that describe a character are presented by the narrator to the reader this can be done through direct or indirect characterization. In the case of direct characterization, the narrator directly describes the way the character is by using "adjectives" and other words that tell the reader about the character. On the other hand, in the case of indirect characterization, the narrator does not describe the character directly but lets the reader analyze the way a character is by presenting the actions and behavior of the character. Considering this the excerpt that is an example of direct characterization is "She knows she is not bright. Like good looks and money, quickness passed her by" as in this the only excerpt in which the narrator describes how the character is in a direct way through adjectives by mention the character "is not bright" and providing further details mentioning this character does not look good or has money.
