Question 8(Multiple Choice Worth 5 points)
(HC)

I remember breakfasts with my grandfather—our morning toast was my favorite time of day. He would toast bread by placing it right on the center rack of the oven. Then, he would butter the bread on both sides and sprinkle cinnamon sugar over the butter. Finally, he would cut the toast into perfect little squares. I can smell that sweet toast now!


What is the one disadvantage of writing this story in the first-person point of view?

Readers are not engaged.
We know the narrator's thoughts, but not the grandfather's thoughts.
We know the grandfather's thoughts, but not the narrator's thoughts.
We do not get a firsthand account.


Sagot :

B) We know the narrator’s thoughts but not the grandfather’s thoughts.

Answer:

The answer is B.

Explanation:

In first-person narration, the story is written as if the reader is the character (usually the protagonist [the main character]). The only problem with 1st-person narration, is that unlike 3rd-person omnicient (in which we know the thoughts and emotions of multiple and/or all the characters) we only know the thoughts and emotions of one character (the protagonist).
