Question

Which excerpt from "A Cub Pilot" by Mark Twain develops the author's point of view?

Answer 1

Answer:

I found all of this just for you!

Explanation:

"Two (2) is asking you to explain how the era the person lived in contributed to their experiences. Experiences usually work their ways into authors stories. And you have to use points of the memoirs that back your claims up.

Three (3) asks you to show the similarities and differences between "Barrio Boy" and "A Cub Pilot". Like the first question, you're being asked to explain how the author's experiences affect their writing. I'm sure somewhere in the stories, there are certain things that show why and how authors write the way they do and why they write the things that they do.

For question four (4); ask yourself this - what is the conflict of either "To Kill A Mockingbird" or "A Separate Peace"? When you figure out the conflict, figure out how it "drives the plot" or keeps the story going (that's the best way I can explain it). How do the characters in the story try to resolve the plot? What does this resolution suggest that the overall theme of the story is about?

I hope my answer clears up any confusion you may have had. Note that I won't give you the answers. I'm just going to give you rewritten (and somewhat more detailed versions) of the questions so that you can find the answers on your own."

Answer 2

Answer:

"It was a good enough lesson, but learned the hard way. Yet about the hardest part of it was that for months I so often had to hear a phrase which I conceived a particular distaste for. It was, 'Oh, Ben, if you love me, back her!'"

Explanation:

The author's point of view refers to the perspective or angle from which the author develops the story, there are three types of point of view: First person, second person, and third person.

The First-person point of view is when the narrator, who is also a character of the story, describes the events, characters, and their inner thoughts through their viewpoint, which is usually highly subjective. We can identify this perspective because it uses first-person pronouns such as "I,"  "me," "my," and "mine" and "We," "us," "our" and "ours".

Excerpt number 4, then, is the one that most clearly develops the point of view because it uses the pronoun “I” several times, which is an indication that the narrative is told from the first-person point of view.
