Omniscient

Third person omniscient is when the narrator reveals the thoughts and feelings of all characters in the story. Since this story only has one character and we know what she thinks and feels about her new system, it is written in omniscient. Limited omniscient is when the narrator reveals the thoughts and feelings of only one character or few situations. Even though the narrator only speaks of one character we will call it omniscient because there aren't any other characters whose thoughts and feelings are being left out that we know of.

Falling Action

In the falling action the main climax has already occurred but there are still some small conflicts on the way to the resolution. The rising action is when there are minor conflicts that make the main conflict even more difficult. The exposition sets up the characters, setting, and main conflict. The Denouement is the resolution of the main conflict.

The door was red, with a small, brass handle in the middle.

Objective point of view leaves out all emotions and only states facts. The description of the door is nothing but fact, there are no emotions involved.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
