Have you ever heard the saying, “That’s like trying to compare apples to oranges”? This phrase is used to point out drastic diff
erences between two things. Two items could be so different that you almost can’t compare them. Think about the fiction and nonfiction texts that you have read. When trying to distinguish between fiction and nonfiction, does the line between genres become blurred? Or, are there clear differences between these genres—like comparing apples to oranges? List and discuss the traits that you see in fiction and nonfiction works. Provide examples of each. Explain what you like and dislike about both fiction and nonfiction. What are some examples of works you have read that dance the line between both genres? Ultimately, would you rather read fiction or nonfiction?
The following question's are the questions that I will answer.

Question #1
When trying to distinguish between fiction and nonfiction, does the line between genres become blurred?
Often, yes. Fiction and (non)-fiction can be very blurred when comparing. You have one genre that can totally be in a real case, and then you have (alot) of times where as fiction (itself) is just very (non) real. Like for example, "The Flintstones." That is fiction. We are not going to real live like them. They scrape there feet when they drive, (like who does that).
Question #2
Or, are there clear differences between these genres—like comparing apples to oranges? Yes, not exactly all the time (fiction) & (non-fiction) is like this, but, the majority of the time,(fiction) & (non-fiction) can be like (apple & oranges) Question #3
List and discuss the traits that you see in fiction and nonfiction works. Provide examples of each. Explain what you like and dislike about both fiction and nonfiction. What are some examples of works you have read that dance the line between both genres? (Trait's that I see in fiction and nonfiction works. ) Some trait's that I see are that fiction works deal with alot of e.g: magic, human flying, and things that are not really real and things that can not be applied in real life. Now for the nonfiction work, this stuff would be real. I can apply movies like "paper town's) or "fault in our stars" and things like that. But things like "Batman (vs) Superman" and "Cars 3" and things like that are not real.
(Explain what you like and dislike about both fiction and nonfiction.)
I dont really like fiction. I love real life things. Things that can really happen in real life. I love that vibe. but also, I do like things like "spider-man" and things like that because they are cool. But I like more fiction things better. (opinion)
(What are some examples of works you have read that dance the line between both genres?)
Some things or (examples) that I know the align with both genre's would be things like "the way people feel" like you can tell in both genre's how the character feels. The things that are also things that line together would be things like (conflicts) and things like (exposition's) and (climax). They all either have (cliff hangers) and things that get a person excited. They also contain things like "love" and things like "romantic" and they also show different (POV). So those are some things that would have aligned together.
Question #4 (last question)
(Ultimately, would you rather read fiction or nonfiction?)
I would rather read (fiction). I like the real feel of when a story is true and not just a little fake things. _____________________________________________________________
I really hope this helps you. I tried my hardest on this and I also hope this helps future people in (advance).
