In this case, the children traveling to Camazotz, meeting Mrs. Who, and finding Mr. Murry are all events that contribute to the rising action. However, Meg, Calvin, and Charles Wallace returning to Earth would be considered a resolution or falling action, as it signifies a resolution or conclusion to the main conflict of the story.

    • D.

    Correct Answer
    B. Impatient
    Explanation
    Through indirect characterization, it is evident that Meg is impatient. This can be inferred from her actions, dialogue, and interactions with other characters in the story. She may display signs of restlessness, frustration, or a lack of tolerance for delays or waiting. This impatience could be portrayed through her constant fidgeting, tapping her foot, or frequently checking the time. Additionally, her impulsive behavior or tendency to rush into situations without considering the consequences may further support this characterization.

    • B.

      They tesseract

      They return to Earth with Mr. Murry

    • D.

      They meet the man with red eyes

    Correct Answer
    C. They return to Earth with Mr. Murry
    Explanation
    The conflict is resolved when they return to Earth with Mr. Murry. This suggests that Mr. Murry's presence on Earth somehow brings resolution to the conflict. It implies that Mr. Murry may have the knowledge, resources, or abilities to resolve the conflict, or that his return signifies the end of the conflict. Without further context, it is unclear what the conflict is or how Mr. Murry's return resolves it, but it can be inferred that his return is a crucial factor in bringing about resolution.
