The effective strategies for revising a narrative text from your list are:

  1. Identify opportunities to use more precise language - This helps clarify the story and enhance imagery.
  2. Ensure characters' thoughts and actions are consistent - Consistency is key to maintaining character development and believability in the narrative.
  3. Examine pacing and flow of events - This ensures that the story progresses smoothly and keeps the reader engaged.

The other options (removing transition words, introducing a new plot line, and omitting key details) are generally not effective strategies for revision. Transition words aid in coherence, introducing a new plot line can complicate the narrative unnecessarily, and omitting key details can weaken the story.
