Indirect characterization happens when the narrator provides specific information about a character. D. Indirect characterization uses exploration of the words and thoughts of characters.
@DarrenMadx321 the first answer to the question is skimming. Skimming is a quick way to identify the main ideas of the text. The techniques in skimming includes reading title, subtitles, headings, and illustrations. Scanning is a technique you use to look up for keywords in a context, without understanding the meaning of text. Scanning is widely used in poems (aka scansion).

In indirect characterization, readers intepret the character through his/her appearance, speech, and behaviour. Direct characterization is when the author tells you the info directly. Answer C.
