Read the following excerpt from Kate Chopin's ‘The Story of an Hour': ‘She wept at once, with sudden, wild abandonment, for the loss of her husband, but as she sat alone in the room, a strange feeling of freedom rose within her.' Based on the passage, which narrative technique is employed, and how does it help develop Mrs. Mallard's emotional transformation?

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. The passage uses free indirect discourse; it lets the narrator convey Mrs. Mallard's inner feelings directly, showing the quick shift from grief to a sense of liberation.
B. The passage employs omniscient third‑person narration; it provides an external overview of Mrs. Mallard's emotions rather than her immediate internal experience.
C. The passage uses stream of consciousness; it immerses the reader in Mrs. Mallard's thoughts, but it does not accurately reflect the sudden shift from grief to freedom.
D. The passage relies on direct dialogue; it presents Mrs. Mallard's feelings through spoken words, which misrepresents the internal transformation.
