Question

what point of view would an author use to reveal the private thoughts and motivations of multiple characters?

○ subjective

○ third person omniscient

○ first person

○ second person

Explanation:

To determine the correct point of view, we analyze each option:

• "Subjective" refers to a perspective influenced by personal feelings, not a narrative point of view for revealing multiple characters' thoughts.
• "Third person omniscient" is a narrative perspective where the narrator knows all characters' thoughts, feelings, and motivations, making it suitable for revealing multiple characters' private thoughts.
• "First person" uses "I" or "we" and can only reveal the thoughts of the narrator (one character).
• "Second person" uses "you" and is rare in fiction; it doesn't reveal multiple characters' thoughts.

Answer:

B. third person omniscient
