<u>The theme of a story is usually revealed during which part of the plot?</u>
<em>C. Rising action</em>
Although <u>theme</u> is explored throughout an entire story, a reader can fully grasp a much clearer meaning of everything that was established by the author during the <u>rising action</u>.
In the rising action, all the events and circumstances developed in the story increase the <u>tension</u> of a story. During this moment of the plot, unexpected revelations or incidents take place and that often connect the previous exposition to the overall essential theme.
