Question

jenny stared at her phone, her fingers hovering over the keyboard. she had received a text from her friend, rachel, that left her feeling hurt and confused. rachel had criticized jennys recent decision, and jenny felt like she was being judged unfairly. she took a deep breath and typed out a response, trying to keep her tone civil. \i dont appreciate you telling me what to do. this is my life, and ill make my own decisions.\ she hit send and waited for a response. how could you change this passage from limited point of view to omniscient point of view, and why? you could take out the quote of what jenny wrote in her text so that you only include implicit information. you could take out the last sentence about waiting for a response so that it doesnt end with an unknown. you could include rachel and explain her feelings so that the narrator knows everyones internal thoughts. you could include a quote that shows what rachel texts back to show what she is feeling internally.

Explanation:

The limited point - of - view focuses on one character's thoughts and feelings. To change to an omniscient point of view, the narrator should know the internal thoughts of all characters. Currently, only Jenny's feelings are known. By including Rachel's feelings and showing the narrator knows them, it becomes omniscient.

Answer:

You could include Rachel and explain her feelings so that the narrator knows everyone's internal thoughts.
