Answer:

The point of view in this excerpt is a first-person one.

Explanation:

If a story is told from the character's perspective while using pronouns such as "I" or "me", we can identify the point of view as being in the first person. In other words, if the narrator of the story is, at the same time, a character in it, the point of view is not in the third person (omniscient), but in the first one.

Such a point of view is common in autobiographies, since the author is narrating events from his own perspective. It can, however, frequently appear in fiction as well. The narrator is not reliable, though. Since he or she is expressing his or her own opinion and knowledge of facts, readers cannot completely trust what is being told.

Answer: The children’s host in Chesham still cared about them after they left.

Explanation:

The passage is derived from the "Children of the Wartime Evacuation” and refers to a story about siblings, Sheila Shear and her sister who were evacuated during the Second World War to Cheshem and placed in the care of Harry Mayo.

Even though he was Christian and they were Jewish, he cared for them so deeply that they kept visiting after the war and Sheila and her mother even attended his funeral.

Perhaps the most evidence of his care was by his own admission when, after his death, his lawyer sent the siblings a cheque with a note saying, "A very small token of my very GREAT AFFECTION."

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Letters A, B, and D are the correct answers.

Explanation:

Even all the options are related to a specific part of a city (a neighborhood), the written options are directly related to security.

In Letter A, readers can find shadows from trees dangerous since they get dark and they can find unknown people or dangerous objects that may hurt pedestrians.

In Letter B, the amount of people that walks nearby the indicated area is big due to the park and pool, giving more importance to the fact that there are no lights because more people are put in a dangerous situation.

Letter D is also correct because it means that the required founds to do this are available, meaning that just the direct action (the process involving the installation of streetlights) is the only required thing.
