The readers strongest impression of the narrator is formed mainly from?
a) the speech and action of others
b) the narrators inner thoughts and feelings
c) the reaction of others towards the narrator
d) the narrators description of his physical characteristics

The answer is option B. the narrator’s inner thoughts and feelings.

Explanation:

Think about it for a moment; when you read a book you normally don’t have feelings about the narrator when ‘others speak’ in this case, talking when its characters’ turn to speak… why? Because, it’s all about the characters, not about the narrator at that moment.

The reaction of other people who have already read the book might interfere in your own perspective about the narrator; however, what really interferes at the end, is the way the narrator expresses his thoughts and feelings while you’re reading the book. The last option is the least compatible, as the narrator of a story hardly describes her/his physical characteristics, why would be the point of doing so?

people are gonna need the passage.

the word that best matches the meaning of the expression "went to the big ocean" is died.

the goldfish died, which is why the father looks at the children mournfully. the "big ocean" is the father's way of saying fish heaven. he could have just said that the goldfish died, but this way, the children imagine the fish in a bigger, better place instead of just picturing a dead fish.
