Answer:

C. to compare loneliness to an undesirable illness or disease that is difficult to cure

Explanation:

McCuller describes Americans as people who are obsessed about loneliness. They do not want to be isolated from the rest. They always want to be with someone. Therefore, the writer uses the word <em>malady</em>  since this refers to an illness that is hard to cure. This means, then, that the Americans will do whatever to escape loneliness since if one happens to be alone, that person will not be loved and will get isolated from society. This is exactly what any American will avoid.

Read each quotation from the story, and then decide whether the author is using direct or indirect characterization.
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 punctuation for this sentence is incorrect. Since you are attempting to combine two independent clauses with a conjuctive adverb (however). The correct way to punctuate this sentence is:
"Halloween has come and gone; however, many kids still have lots of sugar in them."

Hope this helps!
