b. brackets

Explanation:

• In a story, conflict is the struggle or problem that drives the plot forward. Resolution is the end - point where the conflict is solved, setting is the time and place of the story, and exposition is the introduction of characters, setting, etc.
• Sensory details (details related to the five senses) help create vivid imagery in narrative writing as they engage the reader's senses. Statistical, technical, and historical details don't directly create vivid mental pictures like sensory details do.
• When using dialogue in a narrative, quotation marks are used to enclose the spoken words. Parentheses, brackets, and semicolons are not used for this purpose.

Answer:

a. Conflict
c. Sensory details
c. Quotation marks
