You feel as if nothing was ever going to happen again. At any rate that was how it felt to these two. —from The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, by C.S.

Answer 1

Answer: B: The narrator

Explanation: Took this test already

Answer 2

Answer:

B). The narrator.

Explanation:

Perspective or point of view is described as the approach through which the author communicates his emotions or point of view either himself or through the characters of the story. It is quite significant as it determines how the audience would perceive a particular literary text and how would they respond to it.

As per the question, the given story is written from the perspective of 'the narrator' which is reflected by the use of the pronoun 'you' and 'these'. The narrator here expresses his individual thoughts/perceptions about Susan and Lucy and relates it directly to the audience 'you'(second-person point of view). Thus, option B is the correct answer.
