Question

call of the wild
by jack london
the call still sounding in the depths of the forest... filled him with a great unrest and strange desires. it caused him to feel a vague, sweet gladness, and he was aware of wild yearnings and stirrings for he knew not what. sometimes he pursued the call into the forest, looking for it as though it were a tangible thing, barking softly or defiantly, as the mood might dictate. he would thrust his nose into the cool wood moss, or into the black soil where long grasses grew, and snort with joy at the fat earth smells; or he would crouch for hours, as if in concealment, behind fungus-covered trunks of fallen trees, wide-eyed and wide-eared to all that moved and sounded about him.

(1 point)
third-person limited
third-person objective
second-person
first-person

Explanation:

• Third - person limited: In third - person limited, the narrator knows the thoughts and feelings of one character. Here, the narrator knows the feelings (unrest, strange desires, vague sweet gladness) and actions (pursued the call, barked, thrust nose, crouched) of the character (implied as Buck, the main animal character in Call of the Wild).
• Third - person objective: In this point of view, the narrator only reports what can be seen or heard without delving into characters' thoughts. But the text shows the character's internal feelings, so it's not third - person objective.
• Second - person: Uses “you” to address the reader. The text doesn't use “you”, so it's not second - person.
• First - person: Uses “I” or “we”. The text doesn't use these pronouns, so it's not first - person.

Answer:

Third - person limited
