The correct answer is A. Narrative essay
Step-by-step explanation:
Research is the process of finding information about a topic usually to answer a question or prove a hypothesis. On the other hand, a research report is a type of paper written to report the information found at the end of a research and the whole process of researching. This includes annotated bibliography that summarizes the information found in different sources such as books, reports, articles, etc.; documented essays in which a hypothesis or thesis is proved based on evidence and laboratory reports in which the process and results of an experiment are reported. However, narrative essays are not research reports because a narrative essay is a type of text that aims at telling a story including characters, setting, a point of view, etc. and this is not related to the process of researching or proving something and therefore it can not be used to report research.
