In Act 3, Scene 2:

CALIBAN

(to TRINCULO) Thou liest, thou jesting monkey, thou! I would my valiant master would destroy thee. I do not lie. " (The Tempest, Act 3, Scene 2)

Caliban calls Ariel "a jesting monkey" and a liar, who is in turn, speaking as Trínculo. Ariel is imitating Trínculo´s voice and is invisible, thus the confussion. It is worth mentioning that "jester" means fool.

Which is the best example of a plot’s resolution

Tresset [83]

The best example of a plot’s resolution is how a problem is fixed, a conflict is resolved, or a mystery is solved. For example, in Finding Nemo, the plot’s resolution is when Marlin and Nemo finally make it home (not just when Nemo is freed from the dentist office). A plot’s resolution is the ending, so once the story wraps up or comes to an end, you are able to write/identify the resolution.
