4vir4ik [10]
<span>C. Is the correct answer here - bought is based on the root verb 'buy or to buy' but its sense in the sentence is set against the framework of a time from the phrase with the word 'During' and so the word of choice must become 'bought'.</span>

Recall a time when your first impression turned out to be wrong . Write a narrative about what changed your mind. make sure your
statuscvo [17]

Narration means the art of storytelling, and the purpose of narrative writing is to tell stories. Any time you tell a story to a friend or family member about an event or incident in your day, you engage in a form of narration. In addition, a narrative can be factual or fictional. A factual story is one that is based on, and tries to be faithful to, actual events as they unfolded in real life. A fictional story is a made-up, or imagined, story; the writer of a fictional story can create characters and events as he or she sees fit.

The big distinction between factual and fictional narratives is based on a writer’s purpose. The writers of factual stories try to recount events as they actually happened, but writers of fictional stories can depart from real people and events because the writers’ intents are not to retell a real-life event. Biographies and memoirs are examples of factual stories, whereas novels and short stories are examples of fictional stories.

Know Your Purpose

Because the line between fact and fiction can often blur, it is helpful to understand what your purpose is from the beginning. Is it important that you recount history, either your own or someone else’s? Or does your interest lie in reshaping the world in your own image—either how you would like to see it or how you imagine it could be? Your answers will go a long way in shaping the stories you tell.

Ultimately, whether the story is fact or fiction, narrative writing tries to relay a series of events in an emotionally engaging way. You want your audience to be moved by your story, which could mean through laughter, sympathy, fear, anger, and so on. The more clearly you tell your story, the more emotionally engaged your audience is likely to be.

The Structure of a Narrative Essay

Major narrative events are most often conveyed in chronological order, the order in which events unfold from first to last. Stories typically have a beginning, a middle, and an end, and these events are typically organized by time. Certain transitional words and phrases aid in keeping the reader oriented in the sequencing of a story. Some of these phrases are listed here

Rewrite the following sentence to use an original absolute phrase. All work must be your own. Use proper spelling and grammar..
Whitepunk [10]

The way to write the sentence: "The store was freezin" as an absolute frase would be: The store freezing, we need to leave it quickly. Or  We need to leave quickly, the store freezing.

An absolute phrase consists on a phrase that modifies a noun in a sentence, but it is not connected to the sentence by a conjunction. It is separated with a comma only, and it could be removed from the sentence without changing the meaning of the sentence.  An absolute phrase tends to contain a participial.
