Which of the following lines from the speech supports the idea that Roosevelt thinks truthful investigative journalism is a nece

ssity?
A. "There should be relentless exposure of and attack upon every evil man whether politician or business man, every evil practice, whether in politics, in business, or in social life."

B. "There results a general attitude either of cynical belief in and indifference to public corruption or else of a distrustful inability to discriminate between the good and the bad."

C. "The fool who has not sense to discriminate between what is good and what is bad is well-nigh as dangerous as the man who does discriminate and yet chooses the bad."

D. "Such laughter is worse than the crackling of thorns under a pot, for it denotes not merely the vacant mind, but the heart in which high emotions have been choked before they could grow to fruition."

babymother [125]

<span>In those quotations from the story, author is using both direct and indirect characterization. Direct characterization is when author directly states what characters are like and indirect characterization shows personality of a character through speech, looks, actions, thought and effects on others. In the first quotation author is using direct characterization through stating how character looks and states her actions – Della is slender and she has mastered the arts. In second quotation author also uses direct characterization through looks and actions – Madam is large, too white, chilly and she hardly looks at ‘Sofronie. In the third quotation, Madam’s characterization is indirectly shown through her action and speech – she bidded twenty dollars by lifting her hand. An in the fourth quotation indirect characterization is shown through actions – he looked the watch on the sly.</span>

The American realist movement began in 1865, at the end of the Civil War. How might the war have affected the literature of that
nevsk [136]

The romantic period, which preceded the realist period, glorified war. The Civil War, however, resulted in the loss of many lives on both sides of the war. The horrific reality of the Civil War left no room for such an association in realist works. Realist writers such as Bierce, writing after the war, dwelled on the painful and gory aspects of war. The Civil War also led to a cynical and sometimes bleak outlook on life, which realist writing often reveals.
