Which term describes ordering of events in time?

• A. Structure
• B. Chronological
• C. Past Perfect Tense
• D. Figurative

Answer: (B)

The concept here is presenting events in the order they happen over time. The term for that is chronological. When information is arranged chronologically, you move from the earliest events to the latest, which helps create a clear timeline or narrative flow. For example, describing what happened first, then what happened next, and so on, mirrors how events unfold in real life.

Other terms don’t fit as well. Structure refers to how something is organized overall, not specifically the timing of events. Past Perfect Tense is a grammar category about actions completed before another past action, not about the general sequence of events. Figurative describes language that uses metaphor or nonliteral meanings, not the actual ordering of events.
