The correct answer is B. A history of a person's life told by another person is known as a biography.

Explanation:

A biography is a written (and usually published) description of a person's life.

The term is usually used for non-fiction, that is, works in which someone tries to describe the real life of a often famous, person.

A biography is narrative and in this way tries to provide a better insight into the personality and character of the person described than a dry summary of facts would do.
