Question

Identify elements of the short story on which a critic might comment

Answer 1

A critic's job is to express a reasoned opinion on any matter especially involving a judgment of its value, truth, beauty, or technique. Therefore, a critic might comment on all the alternatives in this question except for duration, which is applicable to movies, shows, plays, programs but not applicable to stories.

So the answer is these four elements:

Plot

Theme

Character

Style

Answer 2

I would say that the answer is plot, theme, and character. The reason why is because. Because I fell like that a Character says a lot of thing about the book.
