We first need to understand what the Oedipus myth is to determine which of the statements is a fact. According to the play, Oedipus was doomed to kill his father and marry his mother, Because of this, his father ordered him be killed. This did not happen and he was abandoned and discovered by a neighboring king. When he was older, he was told this and fled the city to avoid the prophecy coming true. He meets Laius on the road, kills him, and then goes to Corinth, where he marries Laius' wife Jocasta. At the end of the play, Oedipus discovers that Jocasta is his mother and that he has murdered his father, causing him to pluck his eyes out and be exiled from the city because of his sins. With this in mind, we can say that the first choice, that Lauis and Jocasta are his parents, is the best answer here.

Explanation:
'The Treasure of Lemon Brown' is a novel written by Walter Dean Myers. The novel is about Greg Ridley and his meeting with the famous blues singer, Lemon Brown.
The narrative used in the novel is third person limited. This narrative sheds light on the thoughts of limited characters. <u>In the novel 'The Treasure Of Lemon Brown' the narrator has expressed the thoughts of Greg Ridley only</u>.
The setback of this type of narrative is that readers are left to thinking what would be the thoughts of other characters in the text. For instance, in this novel, we do not know what Lemon Brown was feeling. This sets a back-drop on narration as it limits the thoughts of other characters.
