    The Answer is B, As a child, Eliza was lost in thoughts as she explored every inch of her wooded neighborhood

    This is the example of Indirect Characterization. Because in this sentence, the writer is describing the character, Eliza, by telling her nature of being thoughtful who always wanted to explore things. So he is describing the character through speech. Indirect Characterization is the description of a character by the writer through speech, actions or appearance.

    The correct answer is B.

    Indirect characterization means showinh the reader the traits and personality of a character rather than writting them down. Through actions, dialogue and description, the author can reveal a great amount about a character.

    Here, by telling the readers about Eliza's activities as a child, the author allows the reader to infer that she was dreamy and adventurous.
