Read the excerpt from "Dream Season.”

"Mr. Robinson is a brave man, Marcus,” Dad said. "There are a lot of people out there who don’t want him to play just because of the color of his skin.”

That is a d*mb reason, I thought as I filled out the scorebook.

What kind of characterization is contained in the underlined sentence?

a)direct, because it tells the reader a personality trait of the character
b)direct, because it tells the reader a physical trait of the character
c)indirect, because it shows something the character says
d)indirect, because it shows something the character thinks

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

I believe the answer is C

Explanation:

Indirect characterization is is the process of describing a character through that character's thoughts, actions, speech, and dialogue. Therefore the answer should be C.

Answer 2

Answer and Explanation:

I'm not sure what part is underlined, so I will say which parts would be direct or indirect.

The first line would be direct, because we hear from Dad that Mr. Robinson is a brave man, which is describing a personality trait.

The second line, "There are a lot of people out there who don't want him to play just because of the color of his skin". Here, it would be indirect, because it is showing a type of thinking/trait that people of the opposite skin color to Mr. Robinson have, which is having a bad mindset and superiority.

The third line would also be indirect. We are being indirectly told that Marcus doesn't like the idea that people, including Mr. Robinson, are not wanted to play because of their skin, showing that he possibly thinks that is unfair and unjust.

What type of evidence does Roosevelt use to support the

claim that the United Nations must attain unanimity on the

human rights issue?

Answers

Read the excerpt from Eleanor Roosevelt's speech

"The Struggle for Human Rights

Abel

As I see it, it is not going to be easy to attain

unanimity with respect to our different concepts of

government and human rights. The struggle is bound

to be difficult and one in which we must be firm but

patient. If we adhere faithfully to our principles I think it

is possible for us to maintain freedom and to do so

peacefully and without recourse to force.

The future must see the broadening of human rights

throughout the world People who have glimpsed

freedom will never be content until they have secured

it for themselves. In a truest sense, human rights are

a fundamental object of law and government in a just

society Human rights exist to the degree that they are

respected by people in relations with each other and

by governments in relations with their citizens.

What type of evidence does Roosevelt use to support the claim that the United Nations must attain unanimity on the human rights issue?

O Roosevelt uses anecdotal evidence by discussing

how other countries have approached human rights

struggles in the past.

Roosevelt uses logical evidence by explaining that,

once people have seen these freedoms, they will

want them for themselves.

Roosevelt usefmanecdotal evidence by sharing

that because human rights make government

work, they must be part of the law.

Roosevelt uses logical evidence by referring to

data about peaceful struggles for human rights

around the world.

Answer:

B. Roosevelt uses logical evidence by explaining that, once people have seen these freedoms, they will want them for themselves

Explanation:
