Answer:

it would be 3

Explanation:

in any situation of emergency when you are fully equipped to battle a fire or any other type of threat you would never call in civilians but in this situation it became out of hand because they were unprepared and under-equipped which meant they needed the help of outsiders.

Why was it so difficult to get Malala out of Pakistan?
Daniel [21]

Answer: Political tension

Explanation:

Malala Yousafzai was shot by Taliban hitmen in response to her activism and constantly speaking out against the Taliban. When she got to a Pakistani hospital, the doctor informed the government that they could not take care of her in Pakistan.

The government suggested England however they could not formally request that England take her because that would mean admitting that they could not take care of their own. They also did not want the Americans involved due to the recent Bin Laden raid that was done without the Pakistanis being informed.

In the end the United Arab Emirates offered to help which was more acceptable because they are a Muslim country.

Read the following and answer the question below:
Maurinko [17]

The point of view of the story is third-person omniscient, since the narrator knows the thoughts and feelings of the character, as explained below.

<h3>What is point of view?</h3>

Point of view is the perspective from which a story is narrated. For example, if the narrator is also a character in the story and uses pronouns such as "I" or "we", we have a first-person point of view.

The story we are analyzing here is narrated from a third-person point of view. The narrator is not a character in the story. He only uses third-person pronouns such as "he" to refer to the characters.

Besides that, the story is narrated from an omniscient perspective. That means the narrator knows the character's feelings and thoughts. Notice that the narrator is telling us what Greg is thinking.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option D, third-person omniscient, as the correct answer.
