• A. Protagonist
• B. Narrator
• C. Author
• D. Reader

Answer: (B)

The voice that tells a story is the narrator. The narrator is the voice you hear guiding the events, describing what happens, and sometimes sharing thoughts and feelings from a particular perspective. This point of view shapes what information you receive and how you interpret the events. The narrator can be a character inside the story (a first-person narrator who uses "I") or an outsider who observes and reports (a third-person narrator). Understanding who is telling the story helps you recognize why certain details are included or left out and whether the telling feels trustworthy or not. Protagonist refers to the main character driving the plot, the author is the person who wrote the text, and the reader is the person reading it.
