Choosing the Right Point of View

17 points: Read the short story below. Then, choose the point of view.

Well, to me, a cat trapped indoors is a sad prisoner. Cats are natural hunters. They are born to be free, chasing mice and other small animals. For cats, the outdoors is filled with adventure.

I suppose Simba could get hurt by a dog or car, and that would be terrible. But I live on a big farm. There are few nearby streets and few cars. Some of my neighbors have dogs, but they are far away. Cats are smart, and they would run away.

What is Hannah's point of view?

A) Simba should be outdoors so he can learn to hunt

B) Simba should be allowed outdoors to stay happy

C) Simba should be kept indoors to stay safe from cars and dogs

D) Simba should stay indoors to be Hannah's friend

Answer: A

Answer Explanation:

Simba should be outdoors so he can learn to hunt is the correct answer because:

In the middle of the paragraph, she starts worrying for cars and dogs.

But then, she says "Cats are smart, and they would run away."

So, the answer to the question has to be option A.

Best of Luck!
