What is the most accurate analysis of the sources of Kezia's fear?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Combined effect of father's seriousness, punishment and lack of communication

Kezia’s fear does not come from one isolated event. Her father appears strict, speaks little with her, and punishes her when she makes a mistake. Because she cannot understand his feelings through open conversation, she sees him mainly as a frightening authority figure. The story therefore presents fear as the result of several connected experiences rather than as the effect of one person or one incident.

The best answer is C because it combines the father’s seriousness, punishment, and lack of communication. Grandmother’s advice may influence Kezia, but it does not by itself create all her fear. The Macdonald family later gives her a contrasting example of a warm father, while Alice and her mother are not the main sources of fear. This combination explains her emotional condition most completely.
