Answer and Explanation:

The answer that makes the most sense is B) Sentence 1 has indirect characterization, while Sentence 2 has direct characterization.

In Sentence 1, we are told that Jackie didn't yell back and didn't avoid their meanness. This is telling us that he was calm and strong indirectly by saying his actions.

In Sentence 2, we are directly told that Jackie was calm and strong, which are his personality traits.
