The most appropriate topic for a personal narrative is D.

A. would not be personal because it is talking about Abraham Lincoln. You're not Abe Lincoln so it wouldn't be a personal narrative for you, but for Lincoln it would.

B. would be more of an argumentative paper rather than a narrative. I'm also pretty sure you are not an oil rig.

C. Although this might be related to something in a person's life, notice how it doesn't really talk about something really personal. Arguably this could count as a personal narrative if you talk about it from your view.
Remember: always choose the best answer. C. could arguably work but is not the best answer when compared to D.

D. This is the best topic for a personal narrative! It talks about something specifically in your life. A story of you and your dad is much more personal than a story of how your school got a traveling drama team.

1. the details that would clarify the authors purpose for writing would be after the "haley collected used soccer jersey and sent them to guatemalan children." part, he would say, "and you can also donate today to save ". so far in the text, you can see no such thing. if, near the end the author persuades you to donate to guatemalans, then you know that the author's reason to write is to persuade you.

2. what details would make the text more engaging is to see the guatemalan children's reaction to getting free jerseys.

3. the details that convey the author's attitude would be an opinion by the author, for example, if he said, "haley was a very nice girl " or, you can find the attitude by finding parts of haley's personality that he highlights. you can strengthen your tones by using more descriptive words, and simplify long sentences as much as you can.
