The answer is: direct characterization.

Direct characterization happens when the narrator explicitly displays a character's personality and attributes. In the excerpt from "Animal Farm," Old Major's traits are specifically described: his nickname as well as his highly regarded judgment and communication skills.

The rest of the alternatives are incorrect because indirect characterization is the depiction of a character's personality through his or her actions, speech and looks; parody is an imitation with intentional excess, whereas satirical exaggeration is the increase of certain characteristics to make something look ridiculous.

Which option is an example of a simple sentence?
nydimaria [60]

The correct answer is C. Processed foods are a staple of the American diet.

Explanation:

In general terms, there are three types of sentences: simple, complex and compound. A simple sentence is a sentence composed only by one clause usually containing a subject, a verb and a complement which expresses a complete idea or thought (independent clause). On the other hand, compound sentences contain one independent clause (phrase that expresses a complete idea) and one dependent clause (phrase that does not express a complete idea) joined by words such as after, while or since  and compound sentences are composed of two independent clauses joined by conjunctions such as and or punctuation sign such as comma or semicolon. In the case of "processed foods are a staple of the American diet" this is a simple sentence as it is compound only by one subject (processed foods), one verb (are) and one complement (a staple of the American diet) and in general only one clause or complete idea.
