Answer:

B. give readers a window into José's thoughts at crucial moments in the story

Step-by-step explanation:

The author of "Born Worker", chose a narrative point of view for this story so as to provide the readers with insight on José's thoughts at important parts of the story. José was the protagonist in the story. He was the "born worker", who did not say much most of the time but rather had his say in his mind.

The narrative style of the story allows us to know what José thought of most of the time. For example, after Arnie said that he knew one of his dad's colleagues whose dog fed on steak, the author narrated José's thoughts thus;

"He's a liar, José thought. No matter how he tried, he couldn't picture a dog grubbing on steak. The world was too poor for that kind of silliness."
