Question

Explanation:

The excerpt uses third - person pronouns like "he" (Framton Nuttel) and shows his private doubts. It doesn't use "I" (first - person) or "you" (second - person). It also gives insights into characters' thoughts, which is characteristic of third - person omniscient rather than objective (which doesn't reveal thoughts).

Answer:

D. third - person omniscient point of view
