Which of these would be an appropriate topic for a personal narrative?

A. Abraham Lincoln's childhood and how it shaped his life
B. why regulations should be tighter for offshore drilling rigs
C. how our school came to have a traveling drama troupe
D. the time my dad and I hiked to the top of Mount Whitney

Respuesta :

The most appropriate topic for a personal narrative is D.

A. would not be personal because it is talking about Abraham Lincoln. You're not Abe Lincoln so it wouldn't be a personal narrative for you, but for Lincoln it would.

B. would be more of an argumentative paper rather than a narrative. I'm also pretty sure you are not an oil rig. 

C. Although this might be related to something in a person's life, notice how it doesn't really talk about something really personal. Arguably this could count as a personal narrative if you talk about it from your view.
Remember: always choose the best answer. C. could arguably work but is not the best answer when compared to D.

D. This is the best topic for a personal narrative! It talks about something specifically in your life. A story of you and your dad is much more personal than a story of how your school got a traveling drama team.
