The Thinking Machine was the creation of American novelist Jacques Futrelle, one of numerous 'detective' characters inspired during the early Twentieth Century by the popularity of Arthur Conan Doyle's master detective, Sherlock Holmes. The Thinking Machine was the nickname of Professor Augustus S.F.X. Van Dusen, a scientist turned armchair detective, who possesses a peculiar and unemotional personality - and a massive intellect - that he applies in a most logical manner to solving crimes, always assisted by an investigative reporter.

From "The Story of an Hour" by Kate Chopin
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

B)  We would know Mrs. Mallard's thoughts about her husband's death.

Explanation:

The given story is written from the third-person point of view. We can recognize this type of narrative by the use of pronouns<em> he, she, it, </em>and <em>they</em>. It feels as if the narrator is a person observing what is going on and telling us about it.

The first-person point of view is the one told from the first person. We can recognize this by the use of pronouns <em>I </em>and <em>we</em>. The narrator is one of the characters from the story, usually the main character.

If Mrs. Mallard was the narrator, we would know her thoughts about her husband's death. We would be looking at the events that take place around her through her eyes. We would know what she is thinking about and how exactly she is feeling. This is the effect of the first-person narrative.
