The answer for your question would be A for the plato users
Identify the type of narration used in the
excerpt.
The story is told in the third person omniscient point of view. It is a
type of narration where the narrator plays god and knows the internal feelings
and thoughts of the character. In addition, it allows the reader to know the
thoughts and feelings of the character too.
Which words in the excerpt indicate the type of
narration?
Using the 3rd person pronouns such as “she,” “he,” “himself,” “her,”
and related pronouns show the point of view of the narration; while the words “knew,”
“felt,” “wondered” and words that show the inner thoughts and feelings of the
character.
What is the effect of this point of view on the
reader’s interpretation of the information presented?
The
reader is able to make judgements and understand why the main character is
behaving that way and the reason behind how the other characters react and
respond to the situation. Interpretation of the story becomes more personal and
engaging.
You would have used B. context clues. The reasoning for this is you have used other words in the sentence and around this word to help you figure the meaning.
