I have had the same dream twice…I dreamed that I was in a field with my sheep, when a child appeared and began to play with the animals. I don’t like that, because the sheep are afraid of strangers. But children always seem to be able to play with them without frightening them. I don’t know why. I don’t know how animals know the age of human beings…The child went on playing with my sheep for quite a while…And suddenly the child took me by the hands and transported me to the Egyptian pyramids.” Then at the Egyptian pyramids, the child said to me, ‘If you come here, you will find a hidden treasu

What point of view does this excerpt represent? first person third omniscient third objective third limited thid the question about the first story too
i dont know this one
Well, that's a good guess. But, a society is usually plural. I'd say character vs character. Although, I was going to put character vs himself because technically he's dreaming. Overall, I think A.

“Dusk was falling as the boy arrived with his herd at an abandoned church. The roof had fallen in long ago, and an enormous sycamore had grown on the spot where the sacristy had once stood.… He saw to it that all the sheep entered through the ruined gate, and then laid some planks across it to prevent the flock from wandering away during the night. There were no wolves in the region, but once an animal strayed during the night, and the boy had to spend the entire next day searching for it. He swept the floor with his jacket and lay down, using the book he had just finished as a pillow.” As it is quoted, what point of view does this excerpt represent? first person third omniscient third objective third limited
It wouldn't be first person because you don't see the passage using I, me, myself, etc. I don't think its third omniscient because it doesnt show the shepherd's thoughts. It definitely isn't third limited, although the narrator is focusing on just one character, the narrator doesn't show any thoughts or feelings of the character. Judging from this "The third-person objective employs a narrator who tells a story without describing any character's thoughts, opinions, or feelings; instead, it gives an objective, unbiased point of view." C is the answer.
