Question

Which of these lists the elements of a good biography?

A. third-person point of view, descriptive images, vivid characters, and an organizational plan
B. story structure with rising and falling action, imagery, colorful dialogue, and interesting anecdotes
C. first-person point of view, a reflective tone, a powerful central character, descriptive elements
D. facts about one person, events that shaped his/her life, interesting anecdotes, contributions he/she made

Answer 1

The answer is D, "facts about one person, events that shaped his/her life, interesting anecdotes, contributions he/she made".

C. is the closest answer to D. , though I do not think it's correct.

A. and B., would be more useful for a fictional story. Remember, biographies are real life stories from real people. It wouldn't be in third-person because they're telling their life story, not anybody else's. First person is better suited for a biography.
