Question

which point of view does the narrator use in the passage? \why didnt you come up to the attic?\ meg asked her brother, speaking as though he were at least her own age. \ive been scared stiff.\ \too windy up in that attic of yours,\ the little boy said. \i knew youd be down. i put some milk on the stove for you. it ought to be hot by now.\ how did charles wallace always know about her? how could he always tell? from madeleine lengle, a wrinkle in time. copyright 1962 by crosswicks first person second person third person limited third person omniscient

Explanation:

• First - person: Uses "I" and tells the story from the narrator's own perspective. Here, the narrator is not using "I" to tell the story from their own direct experience.
• Second - person: Uses "you" to address the reader. This passage does not address the reader as "you".
• Third - person limited: Focuses on the thoughts and feelings of one character. In this passage, the narrator knows Meg's thoughts (e.g., "How did Charles Wallace always know about her? How could he always tell?") but not necessarily the thoughts of all characters in an all - knowing way.
• Third - person omniscient: Knows the thoughts and feelings of all characters. Since the narrator only seems to focus on Meg's inner thoughts (the last two questions in the passage) and not all characters', it is not omniscient.

Answer:

third person limited
