Question

what happens to the reader when authors use second - person narrators?
a second - person narrators force the reader to become part of the narrative.
b second - person narrators are unreliable, so readers distrust the events of the story.
c second - person narrators know all the details of the plot, so readers do not have to interpret the plot.
d second - person narrators are extremely sympathetic for readers, so read tend to overlook other interpretation of the plot.

Explanation:

Second - person narration uses "you" to address the reader. This direct address makes the reader feel involved in the story. For example, in a story like Bright Lights, Big City by Jay McInerney, the second - person narration makes the reader feel like they are the protagonist going through the events of the story.

• Option B: Unreliability is more associated with first - person narrators in some cases (e.g., in Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn, the first - person narrators have unreliable aspects). Second - person narrators don't have an inherent trait of being unreliable.
• Option C: Second - person narrators don't necessarily know all plot details. The omniscient narrator (usually third - person) is the one that knows all details.
• Option D: There is no inherent trait of second - person narrators being more sympathetic than other types of narrators.

Answer:

A. Second - person narrators force the reader to become part of the narrative.
