To determine which nonfiction genre the text exemplifies, consider the characteristics of each genre:
-
Narrative: A story that is told in a structured format, focusing on a sequence of events, which may or may not be based on real events.
-
Autobiography: A self-written account of the author's life, detailing personal experiences and reflections.
-
Narrative Nonfiction: A genre that uses storytelling techniques (like character, plot, and setting) to tell true stories about real events or people.
-
Informative Nonfiction: Texts that aim to inform or educate the reader about a particular subject or topic, often devoid of personal stories or narrative elements.
Based on your options, if the text employs storytelling techniques and focuses on real events or people, it would be classified as Narrative Nonfiction. If it is simply an account of the author's life, it would be Autobiography. If it is more focused on relaying information without a storytelling approach, then it would be Informative Nonfiction.
Without the actual text, I cannot definitively determine which genre it belongs to, but if your text demonstrates the characteristics of storytelling within a factual context, the best answer would be Narrative Nonfiction.
