Question

which is one difference between a graphic novel and a memoir?
○ only memoirs are about nonfiction, or true, events.
○ only graphic novels use speech bubbles to show dialogue.
○ only memoirs are meant to inform readers about world issues
○ only graphic novels include conversations between people.

Explanation:

• Analyze Option 1: Graphic novels can be non - fiction (e.g., some biographical graphic novels), so this is incorrect.
• Analyze Option 2: Graphic novels are a form of comic - style literature that typically use speech bubbles for dialogue. Memoirs (usually in prose form) do not use speech bubbles for dialogue. This is a valid difference.
• Analyze Option 3: Both graphic novels and memoirs can inform readers about world issues, so this is incorrect.
• Analyze Option 4: Memoirs can also include conversations between people (written in prose), so this is incorrect.

Answer:

B. Only graphic novels use speech bubbles to show dialogue.
