Read the following passage and choose the correct answer
Fiction is the writing of a story or text that is not true: It can be written in the
form of either poetry or prose. Poetry is a style of writing in which short lines
form verses. Often, words at the end of these lines rhyme, like “bed” and “red”.We
call a group of verses about one subject a “poem”. Prose writing does not have
verses, nor does it rhyme.It uses sentences and paragraphs. Prose is used in
magazine articles, newspaper stories, short stories, and books.
Prose fiction has existed since ancient times, but most early ficition was
actually written as poetry. Scholars disagree about the date of the first prose fiction
book, or novel. Some scholars classify fictional stories from ancient Greece and
Rome as the early novels in Asia as early as the 6
th
century. These early novels
were mostly short adventure stories about fictional characters.
In Europe, prose fiction began to seriously challenge poetry in the 16
th

century. A Spanish author, Cervantes, wrote Europe
/
s first prose novel in the early
1600s. However, longer novels, like Cervantes
/
s Don Quixote, did not become
very popular until the 1700s.By that time, there were more printing presses, and
more people knew how to read. In addition, more people had money to buy these
books. Today, the vast majority of fiction is written in prose rather than in poetry.
