Question 2
The writer's choice of point of view controls not only what we know but also how we experience the events in the story. If we trust the narrator, and the narrator is scared, we will probably be scared. But if we don't trust the narrator and the narrator is scared, the writer has put the reader in a tough, but perhaps very rewarding, situation of reading the story on two levels. We experience the story as the narrator does, and we experience the story as a skeptical observer of the story.
The purpose of the paragraph is

b. to explain to the reader how trusting the narrator makes us enjoy a story.
c. to give statistics on how the writer's point of view affects the outcome of the story.
