Read this excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass: I was probably between seven or eight years old when I left Colonel Lloyd's plantation. I left it with joy. I shall never forget the ecstasy with which I received the intelligence that my old master (Anthony) had determined to let me go to Baltimore, to live with Mr. Hugh Auld, brother to my old master's son-in-law, Captain Thomas Auld. I received this information about three days before my departure. They were three of the happiest days I ever enjoyed. I spent the most part of all these three days in the creek, washing off the plantation scruff, and preparing myself for my departure. Which best explains how Douglass uses objectivity to convey his perspective in this passage?
A. He incorporates the names of influential people who can verify his story.
B. He creates pathos by explaining how happy he is to leave Colonel Lloyd's plantation.
C. He avoids sentimentality by choosing not to linger on his feelings about leaving the plantation.
D. He uses formal word choice, like "departure", to establish his credibility.
