My grandmother gave me bad advice and good advice when I was in my early teens. For the bad advice, she said that I should become a barber because they made good money and listened to the radio all day. “Honey, they don’t work como burros,” she would say every time I visited her. She made the sound of donkeys braying. “Like that, honey!” For the good advice, she said that I should marry a Mexican girl. “No Okies, hijo”—she would say— “Look, my son. He marry one and they fight every day about I don’t know what and I don’t know what.” For her, everyone who wasn’t Mexican, black, or Asian were Okies. The French were Okies, the Italians in suits were Okies. . . . she lectured me on the virtues of the Mexican girl. The complex narrative structure used in the excerpt is an example of unconventional text features. several narrators being used. establishing a work of fiction that is based on nonfiction. the chronological order of events being manipulated.

I would say the correct answer is several narrators being used.
As you can see in this excerpt, we have two narrators - one in the present, which is the man talking about his grandma, and one in the past - which is his grandma giving his some good and some bad advice. Thus, more than one narrator is used in the excerpt.
