Which of the following quotes from the passage is an example of characterization that develops the theme of Jane’s increasing independence?

A.
"; but I was collected, and in no danger of swooning."****(Am I correct?)

B.
" I looked at Mr. Rochester: I made him look at me.”

C.
". . . near to him as I was, I felt the spasmodic movement of fury or despair run through his frame."

D.
". . . he only twined my waist with his arm and riveted me to his side."

E.
" His eye, as I have often said, was a black eye:"

I have to agree with you because I do not see choice B in the passage.

Choice B is in the passage. Does that mean choice B is the right answer?

"I made him look at me." is pretty indicative of gathering some nerve. However I still do not see that in the text you copied in the earlier question.

"My nerves vibrated to those low-spoken words as they had never vibrated to thunder—my blood felt their subtle violence as it had never felt frost or fire; but I was collected, and in no danger of swooning. I looked at Mr. Rochester: I made him look at me"

I am still debating between the two answers, but thank you for input! :)

A.

"; but I was collected, and in no danger of swooning."
