Narratives FCE 1
Narratives are written either in the first person(I/we) or in the third person
(he/she/they). They may accounts of real events that happened to us or
somebody else, or imaginary stories. These can be humourous stories,
detective stories, fairy tales, etc. Before we start writing the story, we should
decide on the plot line-that is, the events which make up the story.
