The three correct answers are:

1) Setting out a problem: By introducing a problem or conflict at the beginning of the narrative, the writer can immediately grab the reader's attention and create a sense of intrigue or curiosity.

2) Introducing a situation: Starting the narrative with an interesting or unusual situation can also engage readers by piquing their curiosity and making them wonder what will happen next.

3) Making an interesting observation: By making an interesting observation or statement, the writer can captivate the reader's attention and create a sense of intrigue or curiosity. This can be done through a thought-provoking question, a surprising fact, or a unique perspective.
