Answer:

The author wants to present factual information effectively is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The question refers to the following excerpt:

"The purpose of fasting on Wednesdays is specifically to encourage the eating of fish, to support the fishing industry. People therefore respond differently. Some households uphold the old religious fasts during Advent and Lent, as if they are still observing the religious law; others ignore Advent but observe the Lenten fast. Still others ignore Wednesdays and just fast on Fridays and Saturdays." The Time Traveller's Guide to Elizabethan England, a book by Ian Mortimer where the author explores a different perspective of Elizabethan England.

When an author uses the third-person point of view is because he wants to sound more objective because this way he puts some distance between the speaker and the speech. Since the author wants to show a different way of seeing the Elizabethan era (1558-1603), this narrator helps him present factual information effectively.
