The best answer is:
<span>"General Barker bustled about the house like a woman preparing Thanksgiving dinner for twenty."
Comparing General Barker, a man in one of the most masculine professions there are, and preparing for a demonstration of an incredibly powerful weapon of mass destruction, to a woman preparing for Thanksgiving Dinner is ironic in its great contrast between the subject and what he's being compared to. </span>

Give specific details about the exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. Your response should address
vagabundo [1.1K]

Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. In the meantime I will help you in the best possible way.

It is only possible to give details of the elements of a text by reading that text, but I can show you how these elements are established.

The exposition is the moment in history where the scenarios, the characters and even the theme of the text are presented. The function of the exposition is to promote an introduction, where the reader will know the basic points of the plot. The rising action presents a series of events that create a progressive tension in the plot that is transmitted to the reader. The climax is the moment of greatest tension in the plot and consists of the moment when the main character will face his or her worst challenge. Falling action occurs when the main challenge has been overcome by the character and at that moment, the tension begins to fall and the story is moving towards the end. The end of the story is called resolution and it is the moment when everything is completed and finalized.
