Question

question 6 of 10
what is the relationship between first - person point of view and bias?
a. because first - person point of view is told from the perspective of
the narrator, the outlook is usually objective.

b. because first - person point of view is the most impartial, the
characters emotions rarely come into play.

c. because first - person point of view shares the thoughts of many
characters, their feelings are out in the open.

d. because first - person point of view is the most personal, the
narrator’s version of events is often opinionated.

Explanation:

• Option A: First - person point of view is from the narrator's perspective, so it's subjective, not objective. So A is wrong.
• Option B: First - person narration is personal, and emotions of the narrator (a character) are likely to be involved, and it's not impartial. So B is wrong.
• Option C: First - person point of view shares the thoughts of the narrator (one character), not many characters. So C is wrong.
• Option D: In first - person point of view, the narrator tells the story from their own perspective, so their account is personal and often has their opinions, which means there can be bias. So D is correct.

Answer:

D. Because first - person point of view is the most personal, the narrator’s version of events is often opinionated.
