Question 61 purpose across time · core
Two children's story openings from different times
A — The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter, first published in 1902. This is its opening sentence, with line breaks preserved:
“Once upon a time there were four little Rabbits, and their names were—
Flopsy,
Mopsy,
Cotton-tail,
and Peter.”
B — Pip's Morning, an original Pileo Academy classroom story, 2026:
Meet Pip: a rabbit with muddy paws and a plan. This morning she is going to find out who has been nibbling the carrot tops. Her brothers think the answer is obvious. Pip is not so sure.

Which conclusion is fair after comparing these two extracts?
Choose one answer
No modern story ever uses a traditional opening.
Every story in 1902 began in exactly the same way.
Children in 1902 could read only stories about rabbits.
These openings share a purpose but use different introductions; two examples cannot represent every story from their times.
