Ladies and gentlemen of the city council, I'm here at City Hall today to implore you to cancel your plans to build a new landfil

l along Highway 128. I know you think that road is off in the country where no one will see it, but my wife and I drive down Highway 128 every day to get to Path's Crossing. There are 10 homes in that neighborhood, and we will all be affected by this decision. We know that our property values will plummet. Who would want to buy a house that sits down the road from a smelly landfill? I'm asking you to reconsider the proposed plans and look for a different location. Why did the speaker use a rhetorical question in his speech? A. to draw a comparison B. to criticize the city council C. to describe a scene D. to emphasize his point

Which sentence from Fever 1793 reveals a first-person point of view?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

"The man ignored us and pressed on steadily."

Explanation:

By narrating from a first person point of view, the reader can experience the story as if he was in the narrator's shoes. In this type of point of view, the narrator refers to him or herself, therefore "I", "me", "my", "mine", "we", or "us", is used. This is characteristic of autobiographies for example, where we know the narrator's feeelings and thoughts from first hand. The other characters' feelings or thoughts can only be interpreted by the narrator but not known completely.

In this case the narrator uses us, which means he is the one telling the story from his/her perspective.
