Question

read this sentence from paragraph 3.
the liberal military code makes provision for hanging many kinds of persons, and gentlemen are not excluded.
what does the third - person omniscient point of view in this sentence suggest about farquhar?
he is a citizen of good standing in his community.
he is wealthy enough to offer the army a bribe.
he has made provisions for his wife after his death.
he realizes his misdeeds have landed him in a noose.

Explanation:

The sentence uses "gentlemen" to refer to Farquhar, implying he is a respected member of society. A "citizen of good standing" aligns with being a gentleman in the community. The other options: no info on bribing (eliminates B), no mention of provisions for wife (eliminates C), and the omniscient view here doesn't show his realization of misdeeds (eliminates D).

Answer:

A. He is a citizen of good standing in his community.
