There are advantages and disadvantages to both reading and watching a scene. When we watch, for example, we have the advantage of not having to imagine the objects, clothes, and people in the scene. They are right in front of us. When reading, we have to imagine them.

However, one disadvantage of watching is that we are not able to infer the characters' emotions for ourselves. No matter how great an actor is, we can still debate on what it is that the character is feeling at that moment.

When reading, we are told that. In the scene we are analyzing here, we are told that the character "is all the people who are in those cells." While watching a scene, unless we were told that, we would not know that is how the character feels.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option A as the best one.

The missing answer choices for this question are the following:

A. unable to infer the characters’ emotions for themselves.

B. unable to interpret the stage directions for themselves .

C. forced to imagine the appearance of the characters.

D. forced to visualize the props used within the scene.
