A student wrote the following sentence: Pearl is described as an "elf-child," a "sprite," and "the "embodiment of the warfare of Hester's spirit." All of these descriptions mark Pearl as enchanting but also strange and obviously creepy. What change would make this sentence more objective?

Change "obviously creepy" to "unsettling."
Change "obviously creepy" to "poorly behaved."
Change "enchanting" to "cruel."
Change "enchanting" to "potentially evil."

I think that the appropriate change that would make the sentence more objective is changing "obviously creepy" to "unsettling". This is because using the term "obviously creepy" somehow incorporates how the student feels about Pearl rather than providing an objective description about her. To add, the word "enchanting" refers to someone attractive or charming.
