To determine the point of view the author establishes in the paragraphs you're referring to, I would need to have the actual text or at least a summary or description of those paragraphs. Each type of point of view has distinct characteristics:
- First person: The narrator uses "I" or "we" and shares personal experiences or thoughts.
- Second person: The narrator addresses the reader directly using "you."
- Third person limited: The narrator knows the thoughts and feelings of one character, using "he," "she," or "they."
- Third person omniscient: The narrator knows the thoughts and feelings of multiple characters and can provide a broader perspective on the events.
If you provide the specific paragraphs or more context, I can help you identify the point of view used by the author.
