Why did Kezia become more afraid after the paper incident?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because father reacted harshly

Kezia becomes more afraid after her father discovers that she has used the papers containing his speech to fill the pin-cushion. He reacts angrily and strikes her hands with a ruler. The governing concept is cause and effect in character development: a child’s experience of harsh punishment strengthens an existing fear. Option A is correct because the father’s severe reaction directly follows the incident and deepens Kezia’s belief that he is frightening. Option B is unrelated; Mr Macdonald later offers a contrasting example of a playful father. Options C and D do not occur as causes of this fear. The episode also explains why Kezia cannot easily recognise her father’s love: his strict discipline is more visible to her than his quiet care.
