Which is an empathetic interpretation of the father's character in the story?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: He has hidden affection for his daughter along with strict discipline.

An empathetic interpretation considers both a character’s visible behaviour and the circumstances or feelings that may exist beneath it. Kezia’s father is undoubtedly stern: his voice, discipline and busy manner make her feel frightened. However, reducing him to a villain would ignore the tenderness shown when he responds to her nightmare, keeps her close and provides comfort. His love is not expressed through constant play or affectionate speeches, but his protective action reveals it. Option C therefore offers a balanced view by acknowledging strictness while recognising hidden affection. Options A and B are absolute, one-sided judgements, and D is also too extreme because the story shows that he is capable of concern.
