Skills Lesson: Perspective and Narration

Question 5 • ARC English 10 Semester 2 CR/Summer

In which point of view does the narrator have access to, and describe, the thoughts, feelings, and actions of all the characters in the story?

Answer
A
first-person
B
third-person objective
C
third-person limited
D
third-person omniscient

Explanation

A third-person omniscient narrator can tell readers what every character thinks and feels, as well as describe their actions. “Omniscient” means all-knowing, so the correct choice is third-person omniscient. A third-person limited narrator is restricted to one character’s inner thoughts, while an objective narrator reports only observable events.
