How does the Macdonald family's open affection help in understanding Kezia's father's silent affection?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It provides a comparison of different expressions of love

The governing idea is comparison as a way of understanding relationships. The Macdonald family expresses affection openly: Mr Macdonald laughs, plays, and behaves warmly with his children. Kezia’s father, in contrast, is usually quiet, busy, and stern, so Kezia mistakes his reserved manner for a lack of love. When he comforts her after the nightmare, she begins to recognise that care can also be expressed through protection and practical support. Therefore, option D is correct because the Macdonalds provide a contrasting example that makes the father’s less visible affection easier to notice. The other options either exaggerate the comparison or introduce details unrelated to its purpose.
