Answer:

The excerpt is an example of third-person limited narration. Phrases such as “the child wondered,” “she must make a point,” and “she was able to attach” indicate this mode of narration. This point of view lets readers see the events through the eyes of Maisie. The description of the emotions and expressions of the character reveal that the narrator is very close to the character.

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.

Answer: 3.To dress up and parade certain streets for an hour every day, to stand talking in doorways, or drive out in a fine carriage, was not the sort of exercise she liked, and Fan would take no other.

Explanation:

The sentence that best supports Polly’s reasons for keeping her outings a secret from Fan was "To dress up and parade certain streets for an hour every day, to stand talking in doorways, or drive out in a fine carriage, was not the sort of exercise she liked, and Fan would take no other".

From the text, we can see that Polly's idea of an exercise was quite different from what Fan wanted. This is supported by the above answer and this resulted in her keeping her outing as a secret.

"A coherent narrative will be easy to follow and more enjoyable for your reader." Looking at this, we see the words, "easy to follow," and, "more enjoyable." These are our clue words.
