1. the information needed to understand a story = exposition.
Exposition refers to the author giving you some background details necessary for readers to understand what is going on in the story. Exposition is a fancy literary term for introduction to a story, which slowly leads the readers into the plot.
2. artificial ordering of events = plot.
Plot represents what is happening in the story - it refers to the events that occur throughout a novel, or a story. For example, the plot of Harry Potter is a boy going to a wizarding school in order to become powerful enough to defeat his enemy.
3. fictional person = character.
A character is someone who is made up by an author in order to represent people in a novel or a story. For example, in Lord of the Rings, there are characters such as Frodo, Bilbo, Aragorn, Gandalf, etc who all appear in the book.
4. long prose narrative = novel.
A novel is a long narrative in the prose form. Prose is opposite of poetry, which means that it is written in a different way. Novels can be long or short (but definitely longer than a short story). Narrative means that there is something happening in it.
5. the catalyst that begins the major conflict = complication.
Complication refers to an event that complicates everything in a story. Usually this complication will lead to conflicts between characters which will have to be resolved throughout the story if the author wants to have such an ending.
6. partially established by the setting = mood.
Mood of a story refers to what feelings the author is trying to convey through the use of his word choice, setting, characters, events, etc. For example, in The Raven, by Poe, the mood is quite dark and dreary, as well as pessimistic and scary.
7. the turning point in the story that occurs when characters try to resolve the complication = climax.
Climax literally refers to the turning point - after that, the complication will either be resolved and all characters can finally be happy about it, or the opposite may happen - things may end in a very bad way. In Hamlet, for example, the complication ends with everyone dying.
8. the set of events that bring the story to a close = resolution.
Resolution means that a lot of things happened throughout a story, but that everything is solved in the end and the story can finally be completed. Resolution means that there are no more conflicts because everything is resolved.
I always thought I was ugly. I mean I have a small nose, big lips short hair. No more friends. Dropped out of school at 10. Yup, that's a very young age, I know. My mother kicked me out because she didn't want me to become a problem. At the time I didn't know what she mean't. So, now I am 13 hustling on the streets... More like begging.
We are immagrants from Panama, we came here for a better life, but for me it only got worse. My mother wanted me to get an education so that I could excell in life. All I have to say to m mom is that I'm truly sorry, I just didn't understand why school was so important.
It's hard out here...Not a day goes by with me not thinking about my parents and moving back in, especially in the winter. I just don't want to deal with the guilt they'd throw on me. I wouldn't be able to cope with it. So I chose to stay out here. Everyday, I'm out here begging for money. It's sad, I know, but I gotta eat somehow.
I sleep in a cardboard box, with a blanket someone gave to me in an alley. I hate Cleveland...... I hate the world.
Until one day, I went to a new location to go beg, but instead i saw a whole garden full of people! It used to be a vacant lot with trash everywhere! { I know this because my parents live here and so did I } I didn't see my parents though... They must've been at work. I even saw my old friend, Maricela! She was a drop out too. It looked like she was pregnant. I was going to go over there but I was too embarrased.
The next day I thought about going to the garden and planting something, so I'd have something to eat. Then I realized that I had no money! So I begged until I had enough money to buy seeds. So I went over to the lot and started planting.
Of course Maricela noticed me and asked me how I was...{ which was really clear} But overall, I was happy to finally be around people. One african american lady offered to help me. I think her name was Leona. I think I'm going to come here more often! This is a place where I feel I belong!
Now that Leona has helped me... She's put me back in school... Offered me a room in her apartment... And most of all, she got me off the streets and on the road to education! My parents know but still don't want me. They think I'll go back to my old ways. But this time I'm fully commited!
Possible answer:
Passage two and passage three
Answer:
The best answer to the question: What tone does the author create with the word choice? The Yellow Wallpaper, would be: a tone of confusion and also of mystery.
Explanation:
"The Yellow Wallpaper" is a short story that was published in 1892 and it was written by American writer Charlotte Perkins Gilman. The story narrates the events in the lives of a young married couple who decide to go on a summer vacation to a mansion in order for the wife to get some much needed rest and isolation from the hard world. However, the situation turns into their disfavor when the young woman locks herself in the old nursery room where the couple had originally chosen to stay, and begins to see the shape of another woman behind the badly scratched yellow wallpaper in the room. All along the story, from beginning to end, Gilman sets a tone of confusion, especially when the events with the woman behind the wallpaper start to happen, and also of mystery. Sometimes it is possible to believe that there is another entity in the story aside from the wife, John, the husband, and his sister, and at others it seems like the two women (the wife and the shadow) are almost the same. The words used, the way they are used, generate that sense of mystery, of suspense, but most of all of confusion to finally understand what is going on.
