Read the passage from "The Yellow Wallpaper." From what perspective is this story being told?
John laughs at me
John is practical in the extreme. He has no patience with
faith, an intense horror of superstition, and he scoffs
openly at any talk of things not to be felt and seen and
put down in figures.
O first-person point of view
O third-person objective
O third-person omniscient
O third-person limited omniscient
John is a physician, and ... perhaps that is one reason !
do not get well faster.
You see, he does not believe I am sick!
If a physician of high standing, and one's own husband,
assures friends and relatives that there is really nothing
the matter with one but temporary nervous depression-
a slight hysterical tendency–what is one to do?

(7) with fire, though, humans gained time to think and talk about the day’s events and to prepare strategies for coping with tomorrow. the sentence that expresses the main idea is: (type the number of the sentence. then click “go.”)
