Answer 5

Actually, the correct answer is A. point of view. Point of view refers to the perspective from which a story is told. It determines who is telling the story and affects how events and characters are portrayed. To identify the point of view in a story, you need to determine whether the narrator is a character in the story (first-person point of view), an external observer who can see into the minds of multiple characters (third-person omniscient point of view), or an external observer who can only see into the mind of one character (third-person limited point of view). By considering the narrative voice and the pronouns used, you can determine the point of view and understand the author's intended perspective in the story.
