The answer is the amputation of the lieutenant's arm. None of the other options are events in the story. The lieutenant returns home and we don't know the outcome of the battle. There is also no evidence he was ever ill.
The answer is:
B. The conflict has been resolved and order restored — at the expense of the Pequod, its crew, and its captain.
In literature, the falling action comes after the climax, when the main conflict has been reached and finds a resolution. In "Moby D*ck," by Herman Melville, the falling action occurs after Captain Ahab and his crew are killed by the whale.
Answer and explanation:
The interior story, as the name suggests, is the story within another story. In this passage, the frame story is the speaker, Kevin, receiving a phone call from Matt, a friend he hasn't seen in almost ten years. The frame story is the one that involves the interior story. The interior story begins with the line '"Kevin, come inside!" my mother called.' This line separates the current moment from the moment the speaker is remembering - he and Matt playing outside; Kevin's mother calling him in. There is another story being told now, one about the past. But it is told as if it were happening at this moment. We have, from this moment on, an interior story.
