Answer: B. Schlemiel means "an ineffectual, bumbling person," and this description fits the forgetful Professor Schlemiel very well.

Explanation: If you look up the meaning of Schlemiel, you’ll find it’s a Yiddish term, meaning “incompetent person” or “fool”. In the story, Professor Schlemiel is forgetful and disorganized, so much so that he forgets his own address, on his birthday of all days. This description definitely fits him.

And yes, I’m a k12 student, I did the quiz for this story. Best of luck!

Answer:

The answer is third-person limited.

Explanation:

Let's discuss the terms first.

1. <em>Third-person omniscient </em>occurs when the narrator includes all the voices of all the characters in a story. That is, a story is told from different points of view. In this paragraph, we only know about Ben, what he does, sees, his boss.

2. <em>First person and third person</em>. The narrator uses the third person to talk about Ben but he neves uses the first person, i.e. <em>I</em> or <em>we</em>.

3. <em>First person</em>. The story is narrated by the character himself/herself. We know everything from his point of view. The use of "I" and "we" will appear this narrative.

4. Third person limited. This is the correct answer. The narrator presents one character and closely follows him: what he does, what he says, his feelings and thoughts. The characters are described using pronouns (he,she, they,etc). In this paragraph, the narrator includes Ben. He is described as being on a bench on his lunch break, watching the birds eat. He doesn't like being late. He is thinking about why his boss is never around. Every action revolves around Ben and you can find the proun "he" to describe him.
