Question

The following passage (paragraph 6) is told in the tense, from a point of view.

I am tired of hearing that volleyball is easy. I resent that this article implies volleyball players have somehow chosen an “easier” path. More young women are choosing to play volleyball because it is tough. It is competitive. It is fierce and fun. That’s it.

A. present; first-person

B. present; third-person

C. past; first-person

D. past; third-person

Answer 1

A. present; first-person

The narrator uses present-tense verbs ("am tired," "resent," "are choosing," "is") and speaks in the first person ("I"), so it's present tense and first-person point of view.
