I agree with your points of view.
There are other possibilities in each scenario, but these sound plausible, especially C.
A. In this situation, the teenager's point of view is one of excitement and anticipation. They are excited to have the opportunity to drive the family car on their date. On the other hand, the father's point of view is one of concern and worry. He may be worried about the safety of the car and the possibility of any damage occurring while the teenager is driving.
B. From the English teacher's point of view, they may be excited about the opportunity to introduce their students to a challenging and thought-provoking classic. They likely see it as an opportunity for intellectual growth and analysis. On the other hand, the high school student may have a different point of view. They might dread having to read a heavy classic for homework, seeing it as a burden and something they may struggle with.
C. In the context of a music awards situation, the first popular performer's point of view may be one of hope and anticipation. They might have worked hard on their music and performance and are hopeful that they will win an award. The other popular performer's point of view, however, may be slightly envious or competitive. They may secretly hope that the first performer loses so that they could have a better chance of winning themselves.
D. The driver in this situation might feel angry because they didn't realize they had parked illegally and now have to face the consequences. They may feel frustrated at themselves for making the mistake. On the other hand, the police officer's point of view may be more indifferent. They encounter many people who claim not to have realized they were parking illegally, so they may not be surprised or affected by the driver's anger. They simply need to enforce the law and ensure that parking violations are addressed.
