Answer 2

Answer:

The fisherman's determination to outwit the genius  results in the climax.

Explanation:

In the story of "The Arabian Nights" by Andrew Lang, one section of the story is about "The Fisherman" where a poor fisherman had captured a vase which imprisoned a genii. When the genii began to threaten him with death, he began to devise a plot to save himself.

So, when the genii told him to chose how he want to die, he implored him to give him one last wish/ request. And his request was that the genii show him how exactly he had managed to get himself into the small container when he is big in reality. This was a ploy to get him in the vase and keep him locked again. This ploy was to outwith the genii and secure his life. Thus, his motivation in trying to outwit the genii led to the climax of the story where the story turns, leading to the imprisonment f the genii again.
