Returning to his room, he again hears a tapping and reasons that it was probably the wind outside his window. When he opens the window, however, a raven enters and promptly perches "upon a bust of Pallas" above his door. Its grave appearance amuses the narrator, who asks it for its names. The raven responds, "Nevermore." He does not understand the reply, but the raven says nothing else until the narrator predicts aloud that it will leave him tomorrow like the rest of his friends. Then the bird again says, "Nevermore."

ANTONII [103]

Use of the second person (the pronoun “you”), over the first and third person, is a technique that an author will use in order to better interact with readers and engage them.  When one reads the pronoun “you,” one will generally feel as if the author or writer of a text is speaking directly to him or her.  This will, most evidently, draw readers into what they are reading because the message will seem more personal with the use of second person than with first or third.  With that in mind, of the possible responses for this question, “A. It pulls the reader into the text,” seems to be the most appropriate.

Which one of these excerpts from Mark Twain's Life on the Mississippi best shows that the story is told by a subjective narrator
AfilCa [17]

The correct answer is A.  Subjective narrator.

When a narrator is subjective, this one expresses or adopts the point of view of a specific character in the story. He usually knows what the character feels or think, but not what the other characters maybe thinking or doing.  He has a limited vision of what is occurring in the story.
