Which excerpt from the land, part 4 is an example of direct characterization of mitchell?

answers options:

but i also figured mitchell needed somebody to speak up for him, the same way mitchell must have figured i needed somebody to speak up for me on the day we buried my mama.

at this time, though mitchell had befriended me more than once in his way over the years, i still did not consider mitchell a close friend.

i asked him if mitchell could go with us. "he's right good with horses now," i said. "he's gentle with them, and they trust him."

mitchell didn't say anything. he just gave me a look and walked away, but i knew i'd gotten to him.

The excerpt from "The Land", Part 4, that is an example of direct characterization of Mitchell is I asked him if Mitchell could go with us. "He's right good with horses now," I said. "He's gentle with them, and they trust him." In Direct Characterization, the author tells us what he or she wants us to know about the character. He writes about the character's physical appearance, actions, attitudes, inner thoughts, and what others think about the character. In this case, he is directly describing Mitchell.

1. this would be first person. it would be like "i walked home from school today" they are the narrator of the story and is a character as well.

2. first person because they used the word "i" in the quote.

3. i'm really not sure about this one i'm really sorry i never read it so i wouldn't know how to answer it. 

4. it would be character vs. society because everyone he meets there is always a conflict of some sort because he's stuck in his daydream.

5. it would be sadness at the loss of youth because the title itself tells us it's about age so it couldn't be about regret. and the tone just sounds sad, not angry. 

i hope this !
