Read this excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass: As to my own treatment while I lived on Colonel Lloyd's plantation, it was very similar to that of the other slave children. I was not old enough to work in the field, and there being little else than field work to do, I had a great deal of leisure time. The most I had to do was to drive up the cows at evening, keep the fowls out of the garden, keep the front yard clean, and run of errands for my old master's daughter, Mrs. Lucretia Auld. The most of my leisure time I spent in helping Master Daniel Lloyd in finding his birds, after he had shot them. . . . I was seldom whipped by my old master, and suffered little from any thing else than hunger and cold.
Which best explains how Douglass uses objectivity to convey his perspective in this passage?

A.
He describes his experiences on the plantation simply, in order to avoid bias and sentimentality.

B.
He uses formal word choice, like "errands" and "seldom," to establish his credibility.

C.
He creates pathos by referring to his hunger and being whipped to make readers feel sorry for him.

D.
He describes his treatment chronologically to show that he is presenting the facts correctly.
