Mr. Carris blew his nose loudly. "The president retires to Virginia for a respite every September. He is not a man to change his habits. Even if he called the Congress back, few would dare return. I tell you, William, men who stood unafraid before British cannon run in fear from this foul pestilence. I fear for Philadelphia. I fear for the people, I fear for myself."

Which statement best describes the characterization in this excerpt?

The answer is Direct Characterization

Explanation:

Characterization is the way the character in a play, movie is unveiled or unfolds.

There is Direct Characterization and Indirect Characterization.

With direct characterization, the character is described in plain terms. We know what the character is like straight away. In indirect characterization, the unveiling is subtle and gradual.

In the text above, direct characterization was used.

The character Mr Crimson is clearly shown to be afraid.

There was no beating about the bush with it. Statement like "I fear for Philadelphia. I fear for the people, I fear for myself." clearly showed us that he was afraid.

Direct characterization reveals that Mr. Carris is frightened.

explanation:

you only need simple sentences to answer this. just answer these questions.

what do you think annie thinks of the mother? do you think annie believes the mother is a fit mother for helen.

what about the father? what would annie think of him? she might not like him, but does she respect him.

how about the son? would annie think he is the only voice of sanity in an insane place?

what about helen herself? this is the key question. how does she see helen? what do you suppose she thought her first job was going to be.

these aren't hard questions. just state the obvious. annie is not that well educated: she just knows what she has to do. write it that way.

you can do it if you've read the book or seen the play or movie.
