How is Kezia's inner pain expressed in the story?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Through fear, silence and stuttering

The governing concept is indirect characterisation: inner feelings are revealed through outward behaviour. Kezia does not usually announce her pain in a direct speech; instead, her fear appears in her silence, hesitation and stuttering when she faces her father. These signs suggest emotional pressure and lack of confidence. Therefore option A is correct. The story is not mainly presenting her as violent or rebellious, so option C exaggerates her response. Laughter, pride and celebration in option B do not represent her troubled state, while option D describes ordinary activities rather than the specific signs of inner distress. Careful readers infer emotion from action and speech patterns.
