Which excerpt from The Land, Part 4 is an example of direct characterization of Paul?I asked him if Mitchell could go with us. "He's right good with horses now," I said. "He's gentle with them, and they trust him.”
"No," I said. "No, I won't be here, not here on my daddy's land. One day I'll have land of my own. I've got to have something all my own."
Afterward the Missourian congratulated my daddy and paid him the wager. Other people came around and said Starburst was a mighty fine horse and that I was a fine rider too.
“But I still have to say no. I don't want this boy or the horse getting hurt. Like I said, my boy rides only horses he knows. I thank you, sir, though, for the offer."

The third quotation most likely demonstrates direct characterization as it directly states the feature of a character through the other characters praising Starbust("a mighty fine horse...fine rider too").

Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game." "I wanted the ideal animal to hunt," explained the general. "So I said: 'What are the attributes of an ideal quarry?' And the answer was, of course, 'It must have courage, cunning, and, above all, it must be able to reason.'" "But no animal can reason," objected Rainsford. "My dear fellow," said the general, "there is one that can." "But you can't mean—" gasped Rainsford. "And why not?" "I can't believe you are serious, General Zaroff. This is a grisly joke." "Why should I not be serious? I am speaking of hunting." "Hunting? General Zaroff, what you speak of is murder." Rainsford’s response to Zaroff indicates that he is opposed to the idea of hunting humans. he does not understand that Zaroff is hunting humans. he will soon be joining Zaroff in the hunt for humans. he thinks Zaroff has the right to hunt humans.
