Question

Suppose an author's intent is to tell an old story in a new way. What best explains why the author might choose the genre of allegory to convey the story?

A. To encourage the audience to put the original story's quality under scrutiny
B. To provide a frame story that establishes the story's narrator and setting
C. To evoke the readers' memory of the old story through the use of symbolism
D. To express his or her feelings in a way that will not bring repercussions

Answer 1

I believe the answer is, "B. To provide a frame story that establishes the story’s narrator and setting”, because A. is illogical and rash C. Isn’t likely to be the answer because that is not what writers intend to typically do. And it is not D. because it is also an illogical answer. Hope this helped.
