Of Plymouth Plantation by William Bradford. But to omit other things after a long beating at sea they fell with that land which is called Cape Cod; 5 the which being made and certainly known to be it, they were not a little joyful. After some deliberation had amongst themselves and with the master of the ship, they tacked about and resolved to stand for the southward (the wind and weather being fair) to find some place about Hudson's River for their habitation. 6 But after they had sailed that course about half the day, they fell among dangerous shoals and roaring breakers, and they were so far entangled therewith as they conceived themselves in great danger.

Which of the following best describes the effect that point of view has on the reader in this passage?

Question 6 options:

By writing in first person, Bradford gives credibility to his account of what happened because he was there witnessing the events first hand.

By making it known that he is the leader, he makes it clear that he is responsible for all of the troubles the ship is having.

By not injecting himself or his emotions into the crisis, Bradford seems impartial and not bias, so therefore more reliable to the reader.

By speaking dramatically, emotionally, and involving the reader, he is inviting the reader to truly understand and personally feel the danger of the situation
