  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    You must convey that a character is very clumsy. Which of the following is the best way to do this?
    Solution
    The best way, out of the given options, to convey the readers that a character is very clumsy is by revealing how the other characters perceive or see him/her. Therefore option D is the correct option.
    Option A is incorrect because simply stating that he/she is clumsy not enough for the readers to be convinced that the character is indeed clumsy. It lacks imagination. 
    Option B is incorrect because anyone can accidentally trip and with a single incident the readers can't consider it being characteristic of a clumsy person.
    Modifying the way the character speaks can in no way be connected him/her being clumsy. Hence option C is also incorrect.

    Weather: Cold and damp
    Climate: unchanging
    Time of day: evening
    Locale: small town
    Geography: bare and few trees, small shrubs, moist, dark soil
    Solution
    The mood created by the following elements is gloomy, depressing, dark, i.e. option C is the most suitable option. 
    Whereas other options are suitable for the elements like  bright and sunny, evolving and developing, spacious place with greenery and scenic beauty.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable option. 
    A __________ character is one which displays only one or two characteristics or personality traits. 
    Solution
    According to Foster, a flat character is a simple character, shown by the author as having just one or two qualities, which generally remain the same throughout the story, not undergoing significant growth or changes. Therefore, Option A is the correct answer. 
    Whereas option B is the character with extreme complex reality and personality, option C undergoes change or transform and option D is the insignificant character.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    You want to convey to the reader that a character is depressed. Which of the following is the best way to do this?
    Solution
    The best way to describe a character in a story is to make the reader sympathize with him/her. The character's personal experiences, instances that have led him to become depressed, and bringing the other characters' viewpoints about his depression affect the way the reader perceives the character.
    Directly stating that the character is depressed does not really produce a desirable effect on the reader. Hence option A is incorrect.
    Option B: By using the voices of others, like the character's friends, the narrator can best portray that he/she is depressed. Hence option B is correct.
    Option C: The character's routine does not link up with his emotions. Depression is a state of extreme sadness, an emotion. His routine will tell the reader what he does every day. It does not tell the reader how he feels. Hence C is incorrect.
    Option D: Similarly, 'the character's lack of motivation at work' is in relation to his profession and not depression. Hence D is also incorrect.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with an appropriate option:
    A/An __________ character is one in whom the main character confides and thus helps reveal the latter's personality, thoughts or intentions. 
    Solution
    A confidante is someone in whom the main character confides. He reveals the central character's thoughts, intentions, and personality traits. Therefore Option D is the correct answer.
    Whereas option A is the character who doesn't undergo any complexities; option B is the character of enmity; option C is the stereotypical fiction character.
