Question

was nowhere to be seen. suddenly don ricardo dashed up to him in a rage. the don guessed that blanca flor had helped juanito, but he could not prove it. in fury, he set juanito an even more difficult task. juanito must clear a rocky area of land. then he must plant, grow, and harvest wheat to grind and bake into bread. all of this must be done in just one day. which statement best describes the difference between the narrative version and the dramatic version? the dramatic version contains stage directions, and the narrative version does not. the narrative version shows the characters’ emotions, and the dramatic version does not.

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze the characteristics of narrative and dramatic versions:

• For the first option: Dramatic works (like plays) include stage directions (e.g., instructions for actors' movements, expressions) to guide performance, while narrative (like stories) focuses on telling the story without such stage - related instructions.
• For the second option: Both narrative (through descriptions) and dramatic (through dialogue and stage directions) can show characters' emotions. So this statement is incorrect.

Answer:

The dramatic version contains stage directions, and the narrative version does not.
