How does the contrasting example of the Macdonald family deepen emotional meaning?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It shows the difference between open and silent expressions of love

The governing concept is contrast as a device for revealing character and emotional meaning. Kezia observes Mr Macdonald playing openly and affectionately with his children, while her own father usually expresses care through discipline, work, and quiet protection. This difference helps the reader understand that love does not always appear in the same form. The Macdonald family does not prove Kezia's father to be evil; instead, it exposes the limits of her first interpretation of him. It also prepares the final emotional reversal, when his silent care becomes clear during her nightmare. Option B is correct because it identifies the contrast between visible affection and restrained affection; the other choices are exaggerated or irrelevant.
