Read the passage from the grapes of wrath.

he fought and argued, told dirty stories. he drank too much when he could get it, ate too much when it was there, talked too much all the time.

which type of characterization is being used?


personal characterization


abstract characterization


indirect characterization


direct characterization

the correct option is option a "she puts the needs of others before her own".

in this short and masterfully written excerpt, the author does an excellent job introducing the depths of the character of ruth by giving away just a few crucial details.

ruth checks up on her husband who is getting up, without calling attention to herself. immediately after, she returns to the kitchen, wiping her face and fixing her hair in an attempt to hide her exhaustion and go on with her duties.

this description paints a clear picture of a woman that is putting the needs of others before her own. that is the strongest sense we take away from the excerpt.

hope this !

answer:

the author’s style from   a farewell to arms differ from the great gatsby in many ways. fitzgerald uses a more reflective style of writing meaning that he makes his characters reflect and the theme also includes reflection from the reader as well as the plot. on the other hand, hemingway uses a more self-interest style with its theme, characters, and plot, meaning that he makes this book on his own personal experiences that cause the theme, plot and characters to differ in many ways.   hemingway makes his characters less educated and from a lower social ranking than the characters from the great gatsby. the great gatsby also has a totally opposite theme than a farewell to arms because the themes   are more about corruption of american youth and the education of young americans while in hemingway’s book, the themes are war and love.
