Question

For questions 21-42, if you were to change the following first person selection to third person objective, what changes would you need to make? This will require a great number of adjustments; if you don't see why right away, you should review the discussion material before doing this exercise. The biggest clue here is that the objective point of view reads no thoughts. Keeping this in mind, choose what (if any) changes need to be made.
(21) “Where are you headed, Wilson?” I inserted. (22) Not that I cared, especially if it was to visit me, but I wanted to get Martin off his case a little.

(23) He hesitated, not wanting to say he had come to look for me, I figured. (24) “Oh,” he said, “Just . . . down the road.” (25) When that didn't seem adequate, he added, “To walk the flume.”

(26) I would have let it go, because he probably made it up, anyway, and if he hadn't, so what? (27) Let him go ahead and walk it. (28) But Martin picked up on it right away. (29) “Walk the flume?” he said in his sarcastic way. (30) “Why, that's a dangerous activity for such a sweet, young lad. (31) Maybe we'll have to show you how it's done.”

(32) “Oh, great,” Wilson exclaimed, not catching the sarcasm at all.

(33) I thought of what my mom said about Wilson's needing friends so badly that he'd go along with anything to get them. (34) And here was Martin treating him like a dog. (35) Like a hundred times before, I felt sorry for Wilson. (36) But that didn't make me like him or like to be around him. (37) And now we had to go walk the flume with him. (38) I couldn't believe Martin had invited us to go along. (39) But maybe he was just bored and wanted to see how Wilson would perform on the flume. (40) “Ever been there before?” I asked.

(41) “No.”

(42) “Let's go, then,” Martin said.
