People who don’t know Harry tend to underestimate him. They cast a skeptical eye on his typical outfit: ragged jeans and shirts that bear evidence of his most recent meal. And his most frequently uttered expression, “Waaaal, I just don’t know,” can make him sound less than bright. So, some enter a negotiating session with Harry relaxed and confident that their side will prevail and that Harry will gain no concessions for his group. That assumption is one that Harry cultivates, and it is a big, big mistake. Which of the following details supports characterization in a short story? A. information and details about the time and location B. explanations and descriptions of the central problem C. details about people’s appearance and personalities D. the main idea or insight an author wants to convey

Respuesta :

c. because the details are specifically about Harry's personality and appearance

Answer: C. details about people’s appearance and personalities.

The passage introduces the character of Harry. It tells us that Harry often wears shabby clothes and speaks in a way that does not make him sound intelligent. He also relies on people's assumptions about him and uses them in order to prevail in a negotiation. All these details are about a character's personality and appearance, so C is the correct option.
