How does the family try to convince each other that Papa will be alright if they lose the house?
a. He will be able to buy a new house.
b. He doesn't like their house.
c. He wants to move anyways.
d. He will still have his family.

I don’t really know but I guess the answer is D

The answer is actually b. explanation: lines that signify human-like characteristics: “a half a dozen kissed the eves”raindrops don’t usually ‘kiss’ anything, as it is a human action. lines that signify playfulness: “and made the gables laugh” a gable is the part of a wall that encloses a pitched roof, so it is certainly not living and cannot really laugh. this is a human characteristic and signifies playfulness.

Icannot i see the question but i can tell you that’s indirect characterization consists of traits but very implicit.
