To determine which of the sentences is an example of a first person narrative voice, we need to understand the concept of narrative voice and identify which sentence uses "I" as the subject of the sentence.
Narrative voice refers to the perspective or point of view from which a story or narrative is told. In first person narrative voice, the story is told from the perspective of a character within the story, usually using "I" or "we" as the subject.
Let's examine the given sentences:
A. You were simultaneously exhausted and exhilarated following the cross-country trip.
B. The cross-country trip was simultaneously exhausting and exhilarating for him.
C. She was simultaneously exhausted and exhilarated following the cross-country trip.
D. I was simultaneously exhausted and exhilarated following the cross-country trip.
In sentence A, "you" is used as the subject, indicating that the narrator is referring to someone else. In sentence B, "him" is used as the subject, suggesting that the narrator is referring to someone else as well. In sentence C, "she" is used as the subject, indicating that the narrator is referring to a female character.
However, in sentence D, "I" is used as the subject, suggesting that the narrator is talking about themselves. Therefore, sentence D is the correct example of a first person narrative voice.
