Question 5 • TX-English II B

What type of characterization do you observe in Scrooge’s interaction with the men who are collecting donations for the poor?

Answer
A
direct because Scrooge is called a bully
B
indirect because of Scrooge’s dialogue
C
direct because Scrooge’s traits are described

Explanation

This is indirect characterization because Scrooge’s words and responses to the men reveal his attitude toward the poor. The narrator does not simply list his traits; readers infer his selfishness and lack of compassion from what he says. So the best answer is “indirect because of Scrooge’s dialogue.”
