Which sentence describes a key difference in the way that the novel The War of the Worlds was written and the way the radio broa
slamgirl [31]

Answer: B.The novel was written in past tense, and the radio broadcast was presented in present tense.

<em>The War of the Worlds</em> is a novel by H. G. Wells, first published in 1897 by Pearson's Magazine. It tells the story of the conflict between humans and a race of aliens. The novel uses the past tense.

On the other hand, the transcript of the radio broadcast uses the present tense. This is one of the reasons why the broadcast is so famous nowadays. An "urban myth" (as its veracity is disputed) says that when the broadcast aired on October 30, 1938 over the Columbia Broadcasting System radio network, it caused panic among the listening audience, who thought the alien invasion was a piece of news.
