Melanie and Alex are discussing the following passage from a short story Alex wrote:

(1) Victor glanced at his grandmother, who was chuckling at the book in her lap, and felt a pang of envy. (2) Then he turned back to the TV. (3) “When I was a child, we didn’t have video games,” Grandma said, nodding to the game controller in Victor’s hands. (4) “When’s the last time you read a book?”



(5) “I wish I could just tell her that I can’t read,”Victor thought.

Which two of the following statements explain how Alex develops the character of Victor in this passage?

(I) The reflection in sentence 1 helps develop Victor by revealing that he is envious of his grandmother for some reason.

(II) The change in pace in sentence 2 helps develop Victor by revealing that he is not interested in his grandmother.

(III) The change in pace in sentence 3 helps develop Victor by revealing that he plays video games.

(IV) The reflection in sentence 5 helps develop the character of Victor by revealing that he cannot read.
