What effect did punishment have on Kezia?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Her fear increased

The governing concept is the psychological effect of punishment on a sensitive child. When Kezia makes a mistake while preparing her grandmother’s birthday gift, her father punishes her. Instead of helping her understand his affection, this experience makes her more frightened of him and strengthens the belief that he is harsh. Her fear also prevents open conversation, so the emotional distance between father and daughter continues. Later, his kindness during her nightmare shows that punishment did not represent his whole personality, but it did affect Kezia’s early perception of him. Therefore, option A is correct: her fear increased. The alternatives do not follow from the episode. She does not become happy, forget the event, or begin playing as a result of being punished.
