What were the main sources of Kezia's fear?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Father's seriousness, stammering and experience of punishment

The governing concept is characterization through a child’s perception. Kezia fears her father because he appears serious, speaks in a commanding manner and expects discipline. His presence makes her nervous, and she stammers while speaking to him. Her fear becomes stronger after he punishes her for tearing up the papers used to fill the pin-cushion. These experiences create an image of a distant and frightening father in her mind. Thus option A correctly brings together the main causes of her fear. Macdonald’s love in option B actually provides a contrast to the father’s strict appearance. Alice’s care and Grandmother’s advice are supportive influences, not sources of fear, so options C and D are unsuitable.
