Answer:
The author uses an omniscient narrator to reveal the thoughts and motivations of both characters.
Explanation:
Kate Chopin's novel "The Awakening" revolves around the character of Edna Pontellier and her struggle to be sexually and emotionally free from the constraints of society and what is expected of her. The story deals with themes of gender, with how women are perceived to be at home and Edna's desire for freedom to do whatever she wants and to enjoy, have fun in her life.
In the given passage from the text, the narrator is an omniscient voice that the author used to reveal the thoughts and feelings of the characters in the scene. This allows the readers an insight into what each character feels and makes the story have multiple windows from which one can view the events. The narrator presents both Edna's thoughts as well as Arobin's.
Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
