When looking for point of view, you are looking for the narrator's position in relation to the story being told. As you look through answers, which one can you relate back to the story? If the story was told from the point of one of the main characters, one could say that the author's point of view was clearly seen through the eyes of that main character. Without the story and the chooses here, it is hard to get much more specific than that.
