CAHSEE REVIEW FOCUS: Indirect Characterization
On the CAHSEE, you will read passages. Some of the questions will ask you about the CHARACTER TRAITS of the characters. But the passages won't give you a word to describe the character; you will have to deduce the character's personality by looking at the EVIDENCE provided in the text.
