Characterization 10:Question 2 Read this quotation from the passage.
"You laugh when I haven't been funny and you answer right off. You never stop to think what I've asked you.""
This example of indirect characterization has the effect of... Select one:
A: showing readers that Montag is nervous to speak to Clarisse.

B: showing readers that Montag is lying.

C: showing readers that Montag does not think for himself.

D: showing readers that Montag is mentally unstable.​

Answer:

D). showing readers that Montag is mentally unstable.​

Explanation:

The indirect characterization in the given excerpt displays that Montag has been badly conditioned by his dystopian society. His odd reaction on Clarisse's serious remarks on the firemen during their conversation reveals this conditioning and lack of social skills in him. The shallow and weird response from him gives a hint of mental insatbility and psychosomatic illness which was a product of his society's prohibition and restriction on him for enjoying the joys of nature. Thus, option D is the correct answer.

What's in a Name?

Mucus is a great word, not only because it gives name to an important bodily function, but also because it is one of those words that simultaneously makes you feel grossed-out and giggly. Other words for this powerfully important human-health tool include slime and phlegm. Slang words for mucus include boogers and snot. All of these words have the same giggle-power, simply from the combination of consonants and vowels. By the way, mucus is an old word; it's been around since the mid-1600s and has roots back to Latin (mucere, to be moldy or musty) and Greek (myxa, mucus). While you may assume that words like snot and boogers are relatively new slang terms, they are not. Snot dates to 1560 and comes from an Old English word, gesnot, and has the same root as the word snout. The word booger is not quite as old but has been in use since the 1890s.
Which states how "Making the Most of Mucus" uses the quotation? (1 point)

a
To create a metaphor for the importance of mucus
b
To list specific functions of mucus in the body
c
To support the idea that mucus is needed by our bodies
d
To suggest mucus has a well-deserved bad reputation

Which excerpt from The Land, Part 4 is an example of direct characterization of Mitchell?

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.

My name was Tommy Stubbins, son of Jacob Stubbins, the cobbler of Puddleby-on-the-Marsh; and I was nine and a half years old. At that time Puddleby was only quite a small town. A river ran through the middle of it; and over this river there was a very old stone bridge, called Kingsbridge, which led you from the market-place on one side to the churchyard on the other.

Sailing-ships came up this river from the sea and anchored near the bridge. I used to go down and watch the sailors unloading the ships upon the river-wall. The sailors sang strange songs as they pulled upon the ropes; and I learned these songs by heart. And I would sit on the river-wall with my feet dangling over the water and sing with the men, pretending to myself that I too was a sailor.

For I longed always to sail away with those brave ships when they turned their backs on Puddleby Church and went creeping down the river again, across the wide lonely marshes to the sea. I longed to go with them out into the world to seek my fortune in foreign lands—Africa, India, China and Peru! When they got round the bend in the river and the water was hidden from view, you could still see their huge brown sails towering over the roofs of the town, moving onward slowly—like some gentle giants that walked among the houses without noise. What strange things would they have seen, I wondered, when next they came back to anchor at Kingsbridge! And, dreaming of the lands I had never seen, I'd sit on there, watching till they were out of sight.
