Read the excerpt below from the story “subha” by rabindranath tagore and answer the question that follows. her two elder sisters had been married with the usual cost and difficulty, and now the youngest daughter lay like a silent weight upon the heart of her parents. all the world seemed to think that, because she did not speak, therefore she did not feel; it discussed her future and its own anxiety freely in her presence. which point of view does this passage reveal? second-person limited third-person omniscient third-person limited first-person unlimited

The correct answer is B. Third-person omniscient

Explanation:

In literature, third-person omniscient is a type of point of view on the narrator in which the events are told from the perspective on an outsider and because of this only third-person pronouns such as "she", "they", "he and "it" are included rather than "I", "we" or "you", besides this the word "omniscient" is used because in this point of view the narrator knows the feelings, thoughts and other inner elements of characters which means is a god-like of narrator. This type of point of view is the one presented in the excerpt from "Shubha" as the narrator refers to the main character using the pronoun "she" and the forms of it as in "Her two elder sisters had been married" and besides this the narrator knows the feelings of the main character and other characters "All the world seemed to think that, because she did not speak, therefore she did not feel" which only occurs in third-person omniscient point of view.

ur answer is in the it

the purpose of the heading in the passage is to identify who is telling the story.

this excerpt is part of the book sugar changed the world (2010) written by marc aronson and marina budhos. as the book has been written by two people, the heading "marc" indicates that this specific excerpt is being narrated by aronson. in the fragment, marc describes his grandfather's story after hearing it from his cousin. however, there are other excerpts where budhos is the one that tells the story of her family.

aronson and budhos, who are husband and wife in real life, decided to write sugar changed the world when they found out how sugar, which had an important role in slavery and economy, changed their ancestors' lives.
