(1 point) by characterizing olivia as happy and upbeat by characterizing olivia as lazy and entitled by characterizing peter as angry and unhelpful by characterizing peter as smart and studious

Explanation:

In the dialogue, Peter says "I don't have time for that" and "Olivia, I said no! And if you were that worried about passing the test, you should have started studying days ago! Now leave me alone!". These statements show his anger (from the exclamation marks and tone) and his refusal to help Olivia, which means he is unhelpful.

Answer:

By characterizing Peter as angry and unhelpful.
