Which point of view is used in this excerpt from Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson? He was a very silent man by custom.

All day he hung round the cove or upon the cliffs with a brass telescope; all evening he sat in a corner of the parlour next the fire and drank rum and water very strong. Mostly he would not speak when spoken to, only look up sudden and fierce and blow through his nose like a fog-horn; and we and the people who came about our house soon learned to let him be. Every day when he came back from his stroll he would ask if any seafaring men had gone by along the road. At first we thought it was the want of company of his own kind that made him ask this question, but at last we began to see he was desirous to avoid them. When a seaman did put up at the Admiral Benbow (as now and then some did, making by the coast road for Bristol) he would look in at him through the curtained door before he entered the parlour; and he was always sure to be as silent as a mouse when any such was present. For me, at least, there was no secret about the matter, for I was, in a way, a sharer in his alarms. He had taken me aside one day and promised me a silver fourpenny on the first of every month if I would only keep my “weather-eye open for a seafaring man with one leg” and let him know the moment he appeared. Often enough when the first of the month came round and I applied to him for my wage, he would only blow through his nose at me and stare me down, but before the week was out he was sure to think better of it, bring me my four-penny piece, and repeat his orders to look out for “the seafaring man with one leg.” A. first-person point of view B. second-person point of view C. third-person limited point of view D. third-person omniscient point of view

Elenna [48]

Sentences can be formed by phrases or clauses, in this case the italicized words are a phrase. A phrase is a grammatical unit composed by a set of words without subject and predicate whereas a clause is a grammatical unit formed by a set of words that includes a subject and a predicate.  

The noun phrase “Wishing to be heard” is modifying the noun “speaker” since it is providing an explanation of why the subject is performing an action.

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

In the beginning, the narrator feels alone and apart from his new neighbors. Laughing with the other boys over his language mistake breaks down the barrier between him and the others. Once they laugh together, he becomes comfortable being a part of the team. He starts to feel more accepted and hopeful about fitting in as an American.

The theme of The Lottery is that blindly following tradition can be dangerous. This story explores the concept of unquestioningly following past ways and not asking the reason behind doing things. We see that this ignorance eventually leads to the loss of life, and for seemingly no purpose.
