Narration cannot be separated from language, which is the constituent material of narration; narration cannot be separated from time, which can eliminate the compensation of absence, and which can be historical or illusory; narration cannot be separated from knowledge, which means discourse power; narration cannot be separated from society, and the communication information between people produces narration at all times.
