identify the point of view in the following quotation from the necklace by guy de maupassant.
the day of the party arrived. madame loisel was a success. she was prettier than all the other women, elegant, gracious, smiling and full of joy. all the men stared at her, asked her name, tried to be introduced. all the cabinet officials wanted to waltz with her.
options: third person objective, third - person limited, third - person omniscient, none of the choices

Explanation:

The passage uses third - person pronouns (like "she", "her") and presents the events from a perspective that can see and report on the actions and appearances of the characters, which is characteristic of third - person omniscient point of view as it has access to the scene and can describe the reactions of multiple characters (men staring, cabinet officials' desires). The "third - person objective" would be more detached and not show internal desires or reactions, and "third - person limited" would focus on one character's thoughts. So the correct option is third - person omniscient.

Answer:

third - person omniscient
