Read this passage from "The Chrysanthemums" by John Steinbeck:

Elisa came through the gate to watch him while he
pounded out the dents in the kettles. His mouth grew sure
and knowing. At a difficult part of the work he sucked his
under-lip.
Which method of characterization does Steinbeck use to describe the
stranger?
O
A. Appearance
O B. Dialogue
O C. Thoughts
O D. Action

Action beacuse while she watched him pound out the kettle she noticed what he was doing (action). He would move his lips which is an action
