Question

From "The Story of an Hour" by Kate Chopin

Answer 1

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 he, she, it, and they. 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 I and we. 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.
