objective
Identify the narrative perspective used in the short story and explain how this perspective influences the reader's understanding of the protagonist's internal conflict.
Answer Options
Correct Answer
A.
The story uses a first‑person narrative. This perspective lets the reader hear the protagonist's thoughts directly, making the internal conflict vivid and personal, thereby fostering empathy and a clearer understanding of the moral dilemma.
B.
The story uses a third‑person limited narrative. This perspective keeps the reader at a slight distance, offering only occasional glimpses into the protagonist's thoughts, which lessens the immediacy of the internal conflict.
C.
The story employs a second‑person narrative. By addressing the reader as "you," it forces the audience to imagine the protagonist's conflict, but it creates a more instructional tone rather than a personal one.
D.
The story is told in an omniscient third‑person voice. This narrator knows all characters' inner lives, so the protagonist's conflict is presented alongside others, diluting personal empathy.
