A
by studying only his extrinsic motivations
B
by studying only his intrinsic motivations
C

Explanation

A character’s viewpoint is shaped by how he thinks and feels about people, events, and ideas. Studying Paul’s thoughts and attitudes reveals those influences; reactions to situations may offer clues, but they are not as direct a way to understand his viewpoint. The correct choice is “by studying his thoughts and attitudes.”
