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 fiction 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 earliest novels. Others claim there were 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. Question 41: What does the word "It" in paragraph 1 refer to? A.
