The three correct answers for engaging readers at the beginning of a narrative are:
- Introducing a situation - This can create immediate interest and context for the story.
- Setting out a problem - Presenting a conflict or challenge can hook readers, making them want to know how it unfolds.
- Making an interesting observation - Unique or thought-provoking observations can capture attention and encourage readers to think deeper about the narrative.
While giving details about the story setting and describing the characters can also engage readers, they are not as immediately impactful as the three choices above in terms of drawing readers into the narrative. Finding the solution to a problem is more relevant to the conclusion of a narrative rather than the beginning.
