a. the thesis statement in the introductory paragraph.
b. a theme that is implied by story elements.

Answer 1

All of these components are actually very useful in an essay, but I would have to choose B or C.

Answer 2

Every narrative essay should includea. the thesis statement in the introductory paragraph.
b. a theme that is implied by story elements.
c. elements of comedy, drama, mystery, and action.
d. a summary of the thesis in the final paragraph.

Without the theme it would basically be a bunch of random jumble.
