I would say C because it is showing the author's bias/point of view when they state they are a recent immigrant and what they support. But I'm not fully sure.

Answer:

C). "As a recent immigrant, I support making permanent residence easier to obtain."

Step-by-step explanation:

Bias in literature is described as the situation where the author his/her perceptions while narrating a story as the author's personal view may favor or oppose an idea or person that may offer a prejudiced view to the story.

As per the question, the quote that reveals the author's point of view and potential for bias is displayed through option C as here the author includes his perceptions and opinions('I support making permanent residence easier to obtain') that may prevent a neutral or unbiased view of the story to the audience. Thus, option C is the answer.
