Read the excerpt from "daughter of invention". "iya, ya! " she waved them out of her room at last. "there is no use trying to drink spilt milk, that's for sure." what does laura’s attempt at trying to use an english idiom reveal about her character? she is very careful about the way she uses the english language. she is hesitant to speak english most of the time. she is eager to try english phrases and expressions. she prefers to speak in spanish, rather than english.

The correct answer is C. She is eager to try English phrases and expressions

Explanation:

In literature, the characterization which is the way the narrator presents the character's beliefs, values, appearance, and personality or character can occur through direct characterization by using adjectives and words that describe the character or by indirect characterization in which the actions and words of the character reveal the way a character is. In the case  of the excerpt from "Daughter of Invention" which is a short story that narrates the experiences of a family that moves from Dominican Republic (a Spanish speaking country) to the U.S., the mother  Laura and her use of English language in "There is no use trying to drink spilt milk, that's for sure" shows through indirect characterization (Laura's words) that she is attempting to use English phrases and expressions even though she is not an expert as the correct phrase is "don't cry over spilled milk". Thus, the attempt of Laure at trying to use English presented in the excerpt show "she is eager to try English phrases and expressions" as she does not care about the mistakes of her English but tries to use it in the way she thinks is correct.
