Ответ:
The correct answer is B. Indirect characterization – the narrator is relating the major’s thoughts, words, and actions.
Explanation:
In literary works, indirect characterization occurs as the narrator or author of the text allows the reader to know about a character through the thoughts, words, and actions of this character. This is the opposite of direct characterization in which the narrator explicitly describes the personality or traits of a character.
In the case of the excerpt presented, there is mainly indirect characterization because instead of describing the personality of the major the narrator let the reader know him through his actions "The major came very regularly to the hospital", words "The major came very regularly to the hospital" and thoughts or beliefs "he did not believe in the machines" to show he is a skeptic person.
