HURRY

Read the excerpt from "The Sky Will Not Fall."


Caroline almost smiled, but it was not a smile of amusement or happiness. It was a smile that comes from bottled up emotions of fear and frustration. Her chin dropped to her chest, and she let out a sigh. Then, softly and steadily, she said. “I know you’re hurting and you’re frustrated and you want to do more, but you can’t. Not yet. ” She was understanding and gentle, but also firm and strong.

Answer:

2. She was understanding and gentle, but also firm and strong.

Explanation:

Direct characterization is when the author explicitly states what characteristics the character has, rather than implying their personality traits or opinions. The only example sentence that does this is the second one, because the author directly states that Caroline is understanding, gentle, firm, and strong.
