Solution

The correct option is D It should inform the reader of the event/incident
Option D: The main function of an introductory paragraph is to introduce the report to the reader. This is done by informing the reader about the event/incident. Hence option D is correct.
Options A and B: This option does not describe the nature of the content. Also, it is not the length of the paragraph that matters, but the content.
Option C: An introductory paragraph of a report does not contain the writer's opinion.
Hence options A, B and C are wrong.
