The Sun and the Moon

Question

There was hardly a time when the Sun did not boast of its importance. The Sun was well aware that it shone the brightest and ensured that the others knew this as well. Poor Mercury, closest to the Sun, would constantly feel the Sun's wrath upon it, but meekly tolerated the heat as it knew that it stood no chance against the Sun.

But it was the Moon that the Sun liked tormenting the most. Day after day, it would shoot out rays of sunlight at the tiny, cold Moon and laugh at the Moon's helplessness. "Without me the Earth would not survive. It is because of my power and energy that the Earth thrives so beautifully, and it is because of me that you exist at all," he would tell the Moon in a mocking tone.

Poor Moon was a gentle creature and did not utter a word in return to the Sun. Every day, the Sun gave life to the Earth, and the Moon silently appreciated the Sun's power of nourishing life. The Moon knew of its own power over the Earth, and hoped that one day the mighty Sun would see it as well.

Answer 1

If the story were told from the Moon's perspective, A would be the most relevant option:

A. The audience would know what powers the Moon has over the Earth.

This perspective would allow readers to understand the Moon's thoughts and feelings about its own influence, rather than just presenting it as a subordinate to the Sun. The Moon would likely reflect on its role in affecting tides, its relationship with the Earth, and might express its hopes for recognition, thus changing the narrative focus.
