Which of these excerpts from Pepys’s /The Fire of London /*most* clearly
indicates that the work is a first-person account?
/(1 point)/

* “Extraordinary good goods carried in carts…”
* “We did put Mr. Hater, poor man, to bed a little; but he got very
little rest…”
* “Everybody endeavoring to remove their goods, and flinging into the
river…”
* “Poor Mitchell’s house, as far as the Old Swan, already burned that
way…”

Respuesta :

Answer: * “We did put Mr. Hater, poor man, to bed a little; but he got very

little rest…”

This is the sentence that best shows the fact that the work is a first-person account. The rest of the sentences describe the action from a third-person point of view, as the narrator does not participate in the scenes. However, in the second sentence, the narrator states "We... put Mr. Hater... to bed a little." The use of the pronoun "we" indicates that the narrator was involved in the action, which makes the work a first-person account.
