Which story element most clearly shows direct characterization? A. One character’s description of another character’s personality
B. The words a character says
C. A character’s private thoughts and feelings while alone
D. The choices a character makes to solve problems
The correct answer is A. One character’s description of another character’s personality.
Explanation: Direct characterization occurs when the author explicitly describes a character’s traits, motivations, or personality, often through another character’s perspective. In this case, one character directly describing another provides clear insights into that character’s qualities without requiring inference by the reader.
