<span>The story “A
Christmas Memory” by Truman Capote is actually told from the perspective of
Buddy, who is a 7-year-old boy. Because
it is told from the perspective of the protagonist, 7-year-old Buddy, you will
see a lot of use of the personal pronoun “I” in reference to him. As such, it is safe to say that the false
statement in this list of statements is “C. The story is being told from the
second-person perspective,” and this would be evident because anything told in
second person would utilize the use of the personal pronoun “you,” which is
what you would really only see in instructional text and Choose-Your-Own-Adventure
type of literature.</span>
The chain of being is composed of a great number of hierarchical links, from the most basic and foundational elements up through the very highest perfection, in other words, God. God sits at the top of the chain, and beneath him sit the angels, both existing wholly in spirit form.
Hope that helps.
