What is first and third person in Lit Class?
605952
First and third person narratives are how you write stories. First person is like writing it directly from the main characters point of view. Third person is writing from an outsides party point of view.\n\nFirst Person: "I watched as she drove down the road, and away from me. I felt my heart break, knowing she wouldn't turn around, or look back. I could see her eyes locked on the man next to her. God, I felt wretched."\n\nThird Person: "The boy watched as his unrequainted love drove away in the car of another man. The pain in his eyes reflected all that he felt, and one could hear, if they listened close enough, the sound of a heart breaking"\n\nDoes that help?

English and Comp Lit. I can read and write and I think even high school English gives you critical thinking skills. Some of you people on Yahoo answers should really try learning how to write in your native language. I am especially referencing the severe lack of understanding about apostrophe usage and the difference between "your" and "you're". Get a grip, y'all.

First person narrator is when the author is a main character of the book\n\nThird person narrator is the so called "witness-narrator", the one who's not a main character, but is part of the action\n\nthe OMNISCIENT narrator is the narrator who knows, sees, analyses everything, is never part of the book

i can't help you with the text itself, as i haven't read A Tale of Two Cities in about 12 years, but i will try to guide your writing.  For one, you only have a two sentences and the first one is a very long run-on.  Give a few examples of what the body of your essay will be about to set yourself up for the next paragraph.  Also, in many situations a teacher does not want you to rewrite their question word for word in your essay. They would rather have you answer the question with good information that would let the reader know what is being asked of you without you having to tell them.\n\nMay not be exactly but you were looking for, but i hope this helps.

It's a good question. It's hard to say without any type of hint as to what the story is about. it might be better from the 3rd since you'd be able to play a role in the being able to be in all the charaters point of view. And put you as the narator telling the story to kids before going to bed or depending on the story to some adults where they lost electricity during a thunderstorm and you can tell the story from that perceptive. If you were to do it from 1st person you would have to be guessing what they say (since we can read minds). \nI hope this has helped.\n\nBest of Luck!

In the beginning...  Ha.  Start in chapter one.  I am curious to know, though, what 'two' stories you are referring to.

If I had to guess, I'd say that a "place tracer" is someone who describes the setting and why it is important to the story. \nThat';s what makes sense to me. Your teacher probably made it up because it sounds better than "setting describer"\n\nIf you can, double check your directions or call someone from class and ask.

Telling a story as if you are an outsider and know what all characters at thinking and doing.  \nFirst person is telling a story as if a biography (Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn is in first person).  Obviously, you cannot know what other characters are thinking or doing when away from this character.\nSecond person is telling a story as if the person you are addressing is doing something (this is very rare, the only time I've even seen it was a "make your own adventure" where you read a bit, then were given a decision to make, sending you different locations in the book depending on what decision you made).\nThird person is telling about other people.  (The teller is always "first", the person being talked to is "second", others elsewhere are "third").  You can tell the story as if the narrator knows everything going on, or as if not knowing what is going on away from your characters (I think it's called "restricted", but I'm not sure).

I will not and cannot write the introductory paragraph for you, but I will tell you how to approach it. \n\nFrom all of the books you are referencing choose a character and a single common theme or event that relates to your life, your hopes/aspirations or your fears - pick an emotion. \n\nThen think through what that means to you.  Do not think about the assignment -  think realistically.  Compare the characters' experiences to yours.\n\nYou should be able to summarize what you intend to expand on for the main sections of the essay. \n\n Dividing each section into a single topic and ending with another summary of how you wish to use what you've learned from the the characters' lives.\n\nI hope this helps.

I would recommend two options:\n\n1) Get hold of a copy of 'First Things First' by Stephen Covey. It is around the notion of important and urgent and how one can identify these on a daily and weekly basis\n\n2) A simple story which might help you in saving some time instead of reading the book :)\n\nA teacher comes into class one day with a glass container full of big rocks and asks the class if the container was full or not?\n\nThe students say Yes after which the teacher gets some gravel and pours it into the container through the rocks.\nTeacher: "Is the container full now?"\nStudents: "Yes"\n\nthe teacher now gets some sand and pours it into the container which slips in through the rocks and gravel.\nTeacher: "Is the container full now?"\nStudents: "Absolutely Yes "\n\nTeacher gets water and pours it into the container which slips in through the rocks, gravel and sand to eventually fill up the container.\n\nMoral of the story: Identify the rocks in your life (or day) and get them in first - everything else can adapt. Imagine trying to get anything in to the container if  one started with water!
