Question

What is a tension that runs throughout the entire story?

Answer 1

Answer:

B). The tension between the narrator and his father.

Explanation:

Tension in a narrative plot is illustrated as the driving force that functions to take the narrative forward and develop the readers' interest in order to enhance their inquisitiveness to know more. This curiosity assists the author to elicit the desired response from them.

In the given question, the tension that moves throughout the story would be 'the tension between the author and his father' as it surrounds the entire narrative. The events in the story are associated with this tension either directly or indirectly and it(tension between the author's family) not only functions to take the story ahead but also drives the story towards climax and denouement. Thus, option B is the correct answer as such tension is inseparable from the plot and instead works as the driving force.
