#### Sentence 5:
John and David walked to the park to fly their kite.
-
Analysis: The sentence does not use any personal pronouns (like "I," "you," "he," etc.). Instead, it uses proper nouns ("John" and "David"). However, since the focus is on identifying the point of view based on pronouns, this sentence can be considered as written in the
third person because it describes actions of others without involving the speaker or the listener directly.
