Which excerpt best displays the function of narrative structure in Monster? The best time to cry is at night, when the lights are out and someone is screaming for help. The guy who was hit they made sit at the table while they waited for another guard to bring them rubber gloves. Sometimes the camera moves in so close that you can’t tell what is going on and you guys listen to the sounds and guess. I think to get used to this I will have to give up what I think is real and take up something else.

Answer:

I think to get used to this I will have to give up what I think is real and take up something else.

Step-by-step explanation:

The crime novel Monster by Walter Dean Myers tells the story from the point of view of the prime protagonist Steve Harmon through his diary form of writing about his life in prison. Though there is also the omniscient third-person narrator at times, the narration mostly takes place through the voice of Steve Harmon.

The narrative structure of any plot of a story is the order or manner in which the narration of the story takes place/ is done. It may include character, plot, conflict, setting and resolution. And in this particular text/ novel, the function of the narrative structure is best displayed in the line spoken by Harmon, "I think to get used to this I will have to give up what I think is real and take up something else".
