- Extract 4: "Amaka wondered if she had made the right decision, while across the counter, Mr. Okafor secretly wished he could offer her the job right then, though both maintained a formal silence."Third-person omniscient narrative perspective
Cevap
Extract 1 matches First-person plural narrative perspective; Extract 2 matches Third-person limited narrative perspective; Extract 3 matches Second-person narrative perspective; Extract 4 matches Third-person omniscient narrative perspective.
Each extract is correctly matched by examining pronoun usage and the depth of narrative omniscience. Extract 1 uses first-person plural pronouns ('we', 'our'); Extract 2 restricts perception strictly to Tunde's knowledge; Extract 3 employs second-person address ('you'); and Extract 4 discloses the simultaneous private thoughts of both Amaka and Mr. Okafor.
