Which character is the antagonist in this excerpt from “The Story of the Old Man Who Made Withered Trees to Flower” by Yei Theod

ora Ozaki?
After waiting several days, as the dog Shiro did not return, his master began to grow anxious. Day after day went by and the good old man waited in vain. Then he went to his neighbor and asked him to give him back his dog. Without any shame or hesitation, the wicked neighbor answered that he had killed Shiro because of his bad behavior. At this dreadful news Shiro’s master wept many sad and bitter tears. Great indeed, was his woeful surprise, but he was too good and gentle to reproach his bad neighbor. Learning that Shiro was buried under the yenoki tree in the field, he asked the old man to give him the tree, in remembrance of his poor dog Shiro.

Even the cross old neighbor could not refuse such a simple request, so he consented to give the old man the tree under which Shiro lay buried. Shiro’s master then cut the tree down and carried it home. Out of the trunk he made a mortar. In this his wife put some rice, and he began to pound it with the intention of making a festival to the memory of his dog Shiro.

Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

The antagonist in a story is that who opposes or is hostile towards the main character.

In “The Story of the Old Man Who Made Withered Trees to Flower” by Yei Theodora Ozaki, the antagonist is the dog master's neighbour, because he killed the master's precious animal only because he believed the dog behaved badly.

What point of view is used to tell Steve Jobs: The Man Who Thought Different?
Andrews [41]

The point of view in literature is the angle from which the story is being narrated. The most common are the first and third person points of view.

If it's being told from the first person point of view (POV), then the pronouns "I" or "we" will be used to tell the story. If it's from the third person POV, the story will use the pronouns "he", "she", "it", "them", or the main character's name. And finally, the second person POV narrates with the pronoun "you", inserting the reader in the story.

In the case of Steve Jobs: The Man Who Thought Different, the author Karen Blumenthal tells his biography by using his name and "he" pronouns. For example, the opening sentence says "<em>Steve Jobs's first story involved connecting dots, and it began with a most unusual promise</em>". Therefore, the point of view used to tell this story is the third person.
