Question

identify which point of view is being used in the following passage. penelope walked out of the auditorium with her head held high, knowing that she led the debate team to victory.

first person
second person
third person

Explanation:

Analyze the pronouns and subject of the passage

The passage refers to the character by name ("Penelope") and uses the third-person pronouns "her" and "she" ("with her head held high, knowing that she led...").

Determine the narrative perspective

Because the narrator is an outside observer who refers to characters using third-person pronouns ("she", "her") rather than first-person ("I", "we") or second-person ("you"), the point of view is third person.

Answer:

• first person
• second person
• third person (Correct answer)
