Question

Five-year-old Emmie loves to play dentist's office. She knows the whole routine: go to the office, pretend to read a magazine, then get called into the office and sit in the dentist's chair. The best description of this is _____, which is a schema for an event.

Answer 1

Answer: A script

Explanation:

A script is defined as the written texts of a play, filming, broadcasting or show.

A script contains a well described role an actor is meant to perform in a movie.

Emmie here seems to be an actor, because she isn't a real dentist. Emmie also knows all the roles she is meant to play when portraying as a dentist.

And she memories all the processes involved in this which includes going to the office, pretending to read a magazine, etc. Because it now seems like a normal routine for her.

All the routines she takes can also be scripted.
