Answer:
Rising Action: People investigate. A young man yells down the hole to see if it was a fox hole or something. He then throws down pebble to hear when it hits the ground but they never herd it. The scientist tries to figure out what it is and how it got there. Some one tries to use rope to see how deep it is. When they figure it´s an extremely big hole, the mayor gives it away and people start throwing in old diaries, old newspapers, garbage nuclear waste and anything else they do not want.
Climax: When the village starts to get bigger because of all the people who want to work for the man who owns the hole and they have to build more buildings. One day a construction worker, was standing on top of the building and looked up at the sky because he thought he heard someone say ¨H-Hey, come on ou-t¨ Then a pebble falls from the sky as well but he fails to notice.
Falling action: There really isn´t one. The story leaves us readers to figure out what happened.
Resolution: There really isn´t one. The story leaves us readers to figure out what happened.

Answer:
Rhetorical question
Explanation:
A rhetorical question is a question someone asks not to receive an answer but to emphasize a point. Rhetorical questions are often used for literary effect or as a tool of persuasion. The question might not have an answer at all (e.g. <em>Why me? Why bother? What's the meaning of life?</em>) or it might have an obvious answer (e.g. <em>Is rain wet? Do pigs fly?</em>). Rhetorical questions can also raise doubt (e.g. <em>Or was it?</em>).
As the word <em>rhetorical</em> implies, these questions are used as a figure of speech.
The correct answer should be Fee Tail laws, but there were fee tails for women but they had to be specifically stated in a will.
