Which sentences use description to develop the narrator's personality? Select three options. "I live on Greene Street," I answered, handing my registration to the secretary. "I remember that song, and it always makes me feel a little sad to hear it," I admitted to Rosie. I knelt down next to the woman's dog and said, "He's a beautiful dog. What's his name?" "You just say that because you're jealous," I said to Marty as I put my license back in my wallet. "Here's your change, ma'am," I answered, putting the money into her hand, bill by bill.

Answer:

"I remember that song, and it always makes me feel a little sad to hear it," I admitted to Rosie.

I knelt down next to the woman's dog and said, "He's a beautiful dog. What's his name?"

"You just say that because you're jealous," I said to Marty as I put my license back in my wallet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentences that use description to develop the narrator's personality are the second, third, and fourth ones.

Story writers create and describe their characters in the process called characterization. There are two main types of characterization:

  • Direct characterization - the writer explicitly tells us about a character's traits.
  • Indirect characterization - we find out more about the character from their thoughts, actions, appearance, interaction with other characters, etc.

The given sentences are examples of indirect characterization. We find out more about the narrator's personality from their interaction with other characters. The rest of the sentences don't contribute to the description of their personality, which is why they're incorrect options.
