Question

Which of the following would be a supporting detail when analyzing the theme in a story?

Answer 1

I would say a quote that expresses the writers message

Answer 2

Answer:

B. Summary of the story's events.

Explanation:A magical or super human character would be the only one character of the story and thus providing no clue to the story. A quote expressing writer's message would not necessarily provide all the details regarding the chain of events of the story, leaving no scope for interpretation. Twist in the plot is also mere a part of the story and not the story. But apart from these three, a brief summary of the events and happenings of the story would surely help the readers to interpret the text differently and thus, deriving  various themes reflected throughout the occurences of the story. It will help the readers to understand that how different parts came together to give meaning to the story and also be able to analyze the authorial intentions behind particular events.
