After dropping her son off at school, Sara sat at a traffic light and waited. She

was on her way to her office job as a secretary in a law office. It was mainly
paperwork with very little time to interact with other people, but Sara had gotten
used to that. It also gave her plenty of time to daydream, something she had also
gotten quite used to. She was a woman in her mid-30s, married 13 years, with
one child. Narrative Perspective:
First Person
Third Person Objective
Third Person Omnicient
Third Person Limited

Answer:

Third Person Omniscient

Step-by-step explanation:

We know right off the bat it is not First Person (not using "I" and etc)

Now we need to figure it out between:

Third Person Objective

Third Person Omniscient

Third Person Limited

Third Person Objective - the narrator knows or reveals nothing about the characters' internal thoughts, feelings, and motivations but sticks to the external facts of the story

Third Person Omniscient - in which the narrator knows and at least partially reveals the internal thoughts, feelings, and motivations of all the characters

Third Person Limited - in which the narrator describes the internal thoughts, feelings, and motivations of one character, usually the main character

Using these definitions we can narrow it down to either Third Person Omniscient or Third Person Limited. How? This story shares feelings / etc.

Between Limited and Omniscient is a little bit more tricky since it is a shorter paragraph, but I am going to go with "Third Person Omniscient" and it says nothing else about her son, the other co-wokers, etc except mentioning them.

Hopefulyyy this is correct, have a nice day and I hope this does help! :D
