question 8 of 10
a third - person limited narrator and a third - person omniscient narrator differ in what way?
a. a third - person limited narrator engages the reader by using i and we, while a third - person omniscient narrator uses him and her to focus on the action.
b. a third - person limited narrator displays several points of view, while a third - person omniscient narrator narrows the perspective to just one character.
c. a third - person limited narrator has insight into only one character, while a third - person omniscient narrator has insight into all the characters.
d. a third - person limited narrator shows the personal bias of the author, while a third - person omniscient narrator is unbiased and free from all outside opinions.

Explanation:

• In third - person limited, the narrator is restricted to one character's thoughts and feelings.
• In third - person omniscient, the narrator knows the thoughts, feelings, and actions of all characters.
• Option A is incorrect as third - person narrators (both limited and omniscient) don't use "I" and "we" (that's first - person).
• Option B has it reversed; third - person limited narrows to one character, and omniscient shows multiple perspectives.
• Option D is wrong as both can be objective or have some level of authorial influence, not about bias in this way.

Answer:

C. A third-person limited narrator has insight into only one character, while a third-person omniscient narrator has insight into all the characters.
