Correct option is A
A report of an event is meant to provide a factual recounting: what happened, when, where, who was involved, and the main outcomes. Unlike a research or analytical report, it does not require an explicit "Purpose of the report" section; the purpose is inherent—to relay the event details. This distinguishes event reports from project or research reports, which need justification and rationale.
Information Booster
In event reporting—whether for newspapers, magazines, or school records—the content includes the event title, a succinct summary, details of activities, key participants, outcomes, and the writer’s name for authenticity.
The genre is informative and objective, intended for an audience seeking to know what transpired, not why the report itself exists.
Additional Knowledge
(2) A research report includes a bibliography, but an event report rarely would—a “list of books consulted” is typically omitted but is a better fit than purpose since background reading may still be referenced.
(3) “Name of the writer” is essential for authentication and responsibility.
(4) “Topic of the report” is necessary so readers know what event is being covered.
