This section of the story typically includes a series of complications and rising tension, which ultimately culminate in the highest point of action or climax.

    The events that occur after the highest point of action are part of the falling action. Falling action is the part of the plot that follows the climax and leads to the resolution. It involves the unraveling of the story, where loose ends are tied up and conflicts are resolved. In this phase, the intensity of the story decreases, and the tension starts to ease. It sets the stage for the resolution and conclusion of the narrative.

      Theme

    • B.

      Tone

      Mood

    Correct Answer
    A. Theme
    Explanation
    The message of a work refers to the central idea or underlying meaning that the author wants to convey to the reader. It is the main point or purpose of the story, and often explores universal concepts or issues. The theme of a work is the best fit for this definition, as it encompasses the overall message or moral of the story. Tone and mood, on the other hand, refer to the atmosphere or emotional quality of the work, and do not necessarily convey a specific message.

    When a person is reduced to or described by a body part, it is referred to as objectification. Objectification occurs when an individual is treated as an object or a thing, rather than as a whole person with thoughts, feelings, and agency. This can lead to dehumanization and the disregard of a person's autonomy and dignity. It is important to recognize and challenge objectification in order to promote equality and respect for all individuals.

    • A.

      Sign language

    • B.

      Figurative language

    • C.

      Literal language

    Correct Answer
    B. Figurative language
    Explanation
    Figurative language refers to the use of language that goes beyond the literal meaning of words. It includes the use of images and figures, as well as various literary devices such as similes, metaphors, personification, and hyperboles. Sign language, on the other hand, is a visual language that uses hand movements, facial expressions, and body language to communicate. While sign language can certainly be enriched by the use of visual images, it does not involve the use of figurative language. Literal language, on the other hand, refers to language that is used exactly as it is meant to be understood, without any additional layers of meaning or imagery. Therefore, the correct answer is figurative language.

    A narrative refers to a story that is told or written, typically involving a sequence of events and characters. An essay, on the other hand, is a piece of writing that presents a focused argument or analysis on a specific topic. While both a narrative and an essay involve writing, they serve different purposes. Therefore, the correct answer is "An essay."

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    A first-person narrator is a character within the story who tells the story from their own perspective. They can only know and share information based on their own experiences and observations. They do not have access to the thoughts, feelings, or actions of other characters unless those are explicitly shared with them. Therefore, a first-person narrator does not know everything about everyone and is limited to their own knowledge and perception.

      Deification

    Correct Answer
    B. Personification
    Explanation
    Personification refers to the attribution of human characteristics or qualities to something non-human. It is a literary device commonly used in literature and poetry to make inanimate objects or abstract concepts more relatable or understandable to the readers. By giving human traits to non-human entities, such as animals, objects, or natural elements, authors can create a deeper emotional connection between the audience and the subject being personified. This technique allows for a more vivid and imaginative description, enhancing the overall impact of the writing.
