A. They are always real people.

D. Their tone is always objective.

I think it's C.

I think you are correct but I'm not sure what A means as anyone writing a story must be a human?

No.

Most nonfiction is not historical.

I know, right? LOL. But thanks, I needed a confirmation of my guess.

Ms. Sue, it's B. then. Thanks!

Umm it's definitely B lol :D

:) Thank you everybody!

No, not B.

You've had two chances; now you're on your own.

To determine which statement is accurate about the authors of nonfiction, we need to carefully consider each option.

A. They are always real people.
This statement is not accurate. While many authors of nonfiction are indeed real people, there are also instances where nonfiction works are authored by pseudonyms or collaborative groups.

B. Their style is always full of figurative language.
This statement is not accurate. Nonfiction authors often vary in their writing styles, and while some may incorporate figurative language to enhance their work, it is not a universal characteristic. Many nonfiction authors employ a straightforward and factual writing style.

C. They usually focus on retelling historical events.
This statement is not accurate either. Nonfiction encompasses a broad range of topics, and not all nonfiction authors focus solely on historical events. Nonfiction literature can cover areas such as science, personal experiences, biographies, essays, and more.

D. Their tone is always objective.
This statement is also not accurate. While objectivity is an important quality for many nonfiction authors, it is not a requirement for all. Some nonfiction works may express subjective perspectives or biases, especially in personal essays or opinion pieces.

Considering the options presented, none of them accurately describe all aspects of nonfiction authors. Thus, none of the options are a correct statement about the authors of nonfiction.
