C.

Answer 1

I don’t have the text of "The Doe" here. Could you paste the passage or tell me a few lines (especially the opening) so I can check the pronouns and whose thoughts are reported?

If you want to decide yourself, use this quick guide:
- If the narrator says “I” and only gives Maggie’s inner thoughts → A.
- If the narrator uses “he/she” or names but only shows one character’s thoughts (e.g., only Maggie’s) → D.
- If the narrator uses “he/she” or names and moves freely into several characters’ minds → B (third‑person omniscient).
- If the story switches between different “I” narrators (two people telling parts in first person) → C.

If you paste a short excerpt I’ll pick the correct option and explain why.
