Answer

Build tension or interest through answer: Plan the audience, purpose, form, tone and viewpoint before choosing vocabulary and structure for Build tension or interest through.

Explanation

Build tension or interest through uses Plan the audience, purpose, form, tone and viewpoint before choosing vocabulary and structure for Build tension or interest through because it matches the writing for audience and purpose focus for Narrative writing. It separates the skill from weaker choices and keeps the response tied to the exact objective. Use AO5: choose audience, purpose, form, tone, viewpoint, content and paragraph structure before selecting vocabulary. Narrative writing should identify a structure method, such as opening, shift, focus, pace or ending, and explain its effect.
