Which best describes the narration in chapter 5 of the adventures of huckleberry finn?

Which narrative perspective is predominant in Chapter 5 of "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn"?

In this chapter, Huck Finn serves as the narrator, providing readers insight into his point of view and inner thoughts. Huck's father, however, also plays a role in the narrative, which can obscure Huck's feelings and emotions from the reader. Alternatively, if the story were told in the third person, it might foster a sense of detachment between the reader and the characters. There is a perspective suggested that the story is narrated by the "Widow," which may present Huck as an immature child and influence the reader's perception of his character.

The answer is:Huck narrates the story, which helps readers understand his point of view and his inner thoughts.As The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is narrated by himself, you can read "I had shut the door to. Then I turned around, and there he was.I  used  to  be  scared  of  him  all  the  time,  he  tanned  me  so  much." This is the start of chapter five, narrated as well as the others by Huckleberry Finn.

A. Huck narrates the story, which helps readers understand his point of view and his inner thoughts.In Chapter 5, just like in the rest of the book, the narration is told by the protagonist of the story: Huckleberry Finn. Huck is the narrator of the book, and this presents several advantages to the reader. Because of this first-person narration, the reader is able to understand Huck's point of view and inner thoughts. Moreover, the reader gains a particularly good understanding of the context in which the story takes place. Finally, the fact that Huck narrates the story means that the reader is able to see the events as they appear to a child.

The letter A is correct.Explanation:The whole book is narrated by Huck and this is no different in chapter 5. With this we can ensure that the narration in chapter 5 is made in the first person and for that reason we have access to all thoughts of huck which contributes a lot with the story, because readers are able to understand Huck's feelings, sensations, and thoughts. This makes the story deeper and more understandable and makes readers increasingly sympathetic to Huck.
