Excerpt from: The Most Dangerous Game
Richard Connell

When the general, nursing his bruised shoulder, had gone, Rainsford took up his flight again. It was flight now, a desperate, hopeless flight, that carried him on for some hours. Dusk came, then darkness, and still he pressed on. The ground grew softer under his moccasins; the vegetation grew ranker, denser; insects bit him savagely. Then, as he stepped forward, his foot sank into the ooze. He tried to wrench it back, but the muck sucked viciously at his foot as if it were a giant leech. With a violent effort, he tore his foot loose. He knew where he was now. Death Swamp and its quicksand.

Suspense is created in the passage partly due to it being written in which point of view?
A) first person point of view
B) second person point of view
C) third person limited point of view
D) third person omniscient point of view

Respuesta :

The answer to your question would be that suspense is created in the passage partly due to it being written in the third person limited point of view. That is, your answer would be C.

In the third person limited point of view, the narrator follows the thoughts and feelings of only one character. One character is closely followed throughout the story, and it is typically the main character. In this case, the narrator only follows Rainsford, someone else is seeing and narrating how he feels and that is what builds up the suspense.

Answer:  C) third person limited point of view

Explanation: Suspense is created partly because this passage is written in third person limited point of view. This allows the reader to observe what is happening to Rainsford, the main character in the excerpt.
