Answer 1

The answer choice that accurately rewrites the sentences using indirect characterization is:

Devon immediately collapsed as he crossed the finish line, but he did so with a satisfied grin.

This choice conveys Devon's emotional state (satisfaction) through his expression (a satisfied grin) rather than stating it directly.
