what is a narrative. i would like to know the answer

Answers

Answer:

A narrative is a spoken or written account of connected events. Example if you are telling a story about what you did yesterday, you are narrating (or giving a narrative) of your day yesterday.

Explanation:

Answer:

Narrative Definition

Narrative is a report of related events presented to listeners or readers, in words arranged in a logical sequence. A story is taken as a synonym of narrative. A narrative, or story, is told by a narrator who may be a direct part of that experience, and he or she often shares the experience as a first-person narrator. Sometimes he or she may only observe the events as a third-person narrator, and gives his or her summation.

History of Narration or Storytelling

Storytelling is an essential part of human nature. Man is the only creature that tells stories, and we have been telling stories and listening to them since the time we learned to speak. Storytelling began with oral traditions, and in such forms as myths, legends, fables, anecdotes, and ballads. These were told and retold, passed down from generation to generation, and they shared the knowledge and wisdom of early people.

The basic theme of various forms of story-telling were fear of natural forces, deeds of heroes, gods and goddesses, and to teach life lessons from others’ experiences. Biblical stories have the primary purpose of teaching spirituality. Most biblical stories were performed in churches to convey spiritual messages to the masses.

Answer:

I found Ashok sad. When I (b) asked him why he was standing with scooty, he (d) replied that he was planning to learn scooty. I was surprised and made enquiry how he could learn driving that way. Immediately he silenced me by saying that (a) this was the first step of learning. He further added that in fact driving needs planning and practice.

Explanation:

In the given passage, the speeches are written in the reported speech. In other words, they are written in indirect speech, which means the words or speeches of the person(s) involved are given in an indirect way. So, this means they will be changed to the corresponding verb forms depending on how the sentences are presented.

So, for changing a direct to indirect speech, the verb changes depending on how they are used. So, for simple present, the reported speech will use simple past and so on.

Thus, the final sentence will become-
