Answer:
My name is (your name) and I was born in Nevada. When I was (specific age), I moved to Michigan. My parents are amazing people, as they are always encouraging me to be my best self. My parents got me enrolled in this school so that I could receive a better education and have a bright future. My favorite past time is trying new things. Today I tried fishing, swimming, and wrestling. Wrestling is my all time favorite. In fact, last year I made it to the state finals. Although we lost our first round, we won the second round. The third round was nearly a tie. Because I am in the heavyweights class, I went last. I almost lost, but was able to turn the tide at the last second. We ended up winning two more rounds. The first one was easily won, but the second made us sweat. We were so close that we weren't sure we would win. Thankfully, we did. We placed second place in the entire tournament. We were overjoyed and the day was very fun. The next day we went to practice and improved on our techniques and reviewed what we did wrong.

Explanation:
Charles Dickens' <em>Great Expectations</em> tells the story of a young orphan named Pip and his rise to being a gentleman. But more importantly, his childhood days, the education and knowledge that he learned along the way during his various encounters with different sorts of people and the theme of belonging, loss of innocence, and society are all dealt with in the story.
In the given excerpt from Chapter VIII of the text, the scene shows Pip's first encounter with Miss Havisham and also Estella. Pip admits he had never questioned his childhood until that day when after meeting with Miss Havisham, was led to the courtyard under the bright sunlight. As though everything hidden in the dark is illuminated by the sun, Pip also feels ashamed of his appearance and even regrets not being taught properly by Joe. He admits his shame in realizing his <em>"coarse hands and my common boots"</em> were seen by Miss Havisham, admits that<em> "they had never troubled me before, but they troubled me now as vulgar appendages"</em>. He even expressed his<em> "wish [that] Joe had been rather more genteely brought up, and then I should have been so too"</em>, which shows <u>his feeling of inferiority in the face of Miss Havisham,</u> or in general, in front of someone richer or 'classier' than them.
<span>The point of view that is used in the excerpt </span>The Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum is a third person. Third person point of view uses pronouns such as he, she, it or the name of the person. I would like to highlight the wprds that makes it a third person point of view.
When <u>Dorothy</u> was left alone <u>she</u> began to feel hungry. So <u>she</u> went to the cupboard and cut <u>herself</u> some bread, which <u>she</u> spread with butter. She gave some to <u>Toto</u>, and taking a pail from the shelf she carried it down to the little brook and filled it with clear, sparkling water.
So form the sentences that I chose above, the pronouns that were used are Dorothy, she and Toto.
The third option is correct
