skip 2/10 complete

Explanation:

An allegory is a story with a literal (surface - level) meaning and a symbolic (deeper, representing abstract ideas) meaning. The other options don't correctly describe the two types of meanings in an allegory. "Literal and narrative" is incorrect as narrative is about the story's telling, not a meaning type. "Symbolic and metaphoric" is wrong as metaphoric is a type of figurative language, not a core meaning type of allegory. "Narrative and symbolic" is incorrect as narrative is about the story's structure, not a meaning type.

Answer:

C. Literal and symbolic
