<span>The correct answer is indirect characterization.

Remember that direct characterization is when an author directly reveals traits about the character. For example, writing that "Paul was an angry man." is an example of direct characterization because the author is directly telling the reader about Paul.

On the other hand, indirect characterization occurs when a writer shows the character's personality. This is often done through speech, actions, or appearance. The fact that none of the sailors from the dock want to sail with Captain Jaggery tells us a lot about Jaggery's character -- namely, that he must not be a very nice person.</span>

After reading the story, did you feel that a situation like the one in “The Cold Equations” could actually happen? Explain your
kiruha [24]
I think it could happen because the girl (don't remember their names sorry) snuck onto the ship where she wasn't supposed to go. Obviously if you do something wrong, no necessarily sneaking onto a spaceship, there are always consequences. The man did try to save her life, but there wasn't much he could do because it was too late for both of them to survive.
