What best defines the mode of narration in this excerpt from Daisy Miller by Henry James?
The young lady Inspected her flounces and smoothed her ribbons again; and Winterbourne presently risked an observation upon the
beauty of the view. He was ceasing to be embarassed, for he had begun to perceive that she was not in the least embarrassed herself.
There had not been the slightest alteration in her charming complexion; she was evidently neither offended nor flattered. If she looked
another way when he spoke to her, and seemed not particularly to hear him, this was simply her habit, her manner. Yet, as he talked a
more and pointed out some of the objects of Interest in the view, with which she appeared quite unacquainted, she gradually gave him

I MET a traveller from an antique land Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert ... Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage [face] lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which still survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed; And on the pedestal these words appear: "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!" Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away. Which of the following would be an additional example of situational irony? A; Learning the traveler did not expect to see a broken statue in the desert. B; Learning the traveler found more ruins C;Learning the king expected his statue to crumble D; Learning the king knew he would be forgotten as time passed.

It is true that Bob Dylan has published traditional poetry and prose. However, neither of the books was very good, and neither won prestigious awards. If the Nobel Prize in Literature considered all writers of at least two mediocre books, the award would mean nothing.
It is true that Bob Dylan has published traditional poetry and prose. However, one book of poetry and one memoir would not qualify him for the prize. The prize was awarded based on his songwriting, which does not qualify as literature.
