Answer:

I don't have the passage, but I'll give a rough overview.

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Starts using I/me. Shifts to she/her or he/him.

B) Starts using she/her or he/him. Shifts to I/me.

C) Starts using I/me. Ends using I/me.

Short examples (They don't really make sense, just to give you an idea, sorry about that) :

A) I stood at the top of the stairway, wondering what had just happened to me. Let's rewind. She had tried to make amends, but nothing worked...

B) She had tried to make amends, but nothing worked. Let's rewind. I stood at the top of the stairway, wondering what had happened to me...

C) I stood at the top of the stairway, wondering what had just happened to me. Let's rewind. I had tried to make amends, but nothing worked...

D) She stood at the top of the stairway, wondering what had just happened to her. Let's rewind. She had tried to make amends, but nothing worked...

I hope this helps somewhat! If this doesn't make sense, comment and I'll try re-explain it!
