Final answer:
The nature of the stories in the given text can be determined by analyzing the point of view of the narrator: first person, detached third person, or omniscient.
Step-by-step explanation:
The nature of the stories in the given text can be determined by analyzing the point of view of the narrator. If the story is written in the first person 'I' point of view, it means that the narrator is a character in the story and is directly involved in the events. If the story is written in a detached third person 'he/she/they' point of view, the narrator is an observer and not a character in the story. And if there is an 'all-knowing' third person narrator who can reveal what all the characters are thinking and doing, it is called an omniscient narrator. This helps determine the nature of the story and how it is presented to the reader.
