The correct answer is: B. Worry about political climate

Explanation:

One of the biggest reasons why Darwin waited 20 years to publish his theory  On the origin of Species was because of the religious implications it carried. It is known that in the time of 19th century, Victorian period in England, religion and the Church played great role in the politics and in the life of society. Therefore, the scientist was afraid of the reaction of people on his brave words that there is no sharp line between a human being and "lower animal". Darwin knew that publishing his work would provoke a very controversial issue, and he was right.

Read the passage.
Vaselesa [24]

Point of view is the mode of narration that the author employs to let the readers "hear" or "see" what happens in the story. There are three major types of point of view, first person, second person, and third person. First person uses the pronouns "I" or "we". Second person uses the pronoun "you". Lastly, the third person utilizes the pronouns "he", "she", "it", "they", or a name. In this case, the passage reads:

"She's a good dog, isn't she?" Doris said, hoping one of them would agree with her.

In this passage, the pronouns she and them indicate third-person point of view (C).
