<span>Figurative language is language that uses words or expressions with a meaning that is different from the literal interpretation. When a writer uses literal language, he or she is simply stating the facts as they are. ... Figurative language is very common in poetry, but is also used in prose and nonfiction writing as well.</span>

Hello. You left the question incomplete. Here is the continuation:

... these colonies of tiny organisms would not last. In fact, we’d be lucky if they lasted 5 more years. She cared about the safety of these coral reefs more than she has cared about anything for a long, long time. She had to do something for the fragile, endangered habitat with its fish, mollusks, worms, crustaceans and many more.

So, she used her money to create a lab at her aunt’s house. She worked tirelessly—endlessly—sleeping only when she had to.

“It’s what mom and dad would have done,” she thought.

Her best friend Sam, would hang out with her everyday—eating pizza, fries, and whatever else he could get his hands on, keeping her company with his humor while Sophie worked on her experiments. And now, she has a biological solution in her hands.

She hesitated at the door to the labs. Nervously, she shifted her lab report from one hand to the other.

“I know that have an innovative approach to solving the coral reef issue and I know I can help,” she said to no one.

The image of being ridiculed by these professors, delayed her entry. She stood outside the door, wanting to run back- wanting to hide- glued to the icy spot.

“Hey, Sophie!” She turned at the unexpected sound of Sam’s voice.

“I’ve been… trying to catch up with you,” he panted- out of breath. “Let’s go in and… show them… what you’ve got.”

Sophie tilted her head, smiled at Sam and opened the door. She walked confidently to the front, laid out her research on the podium and began her presentation. When her presentation ended, it was to the enthusiastic sound of the scientists’ applause.

Answer:

Scenario: Winter in New York in the current year.

Protagonist: Sophie.

Rising Action: When sophie is outside the room debating with herself.

Conflict: Sophie is concerned that her research will be disregarded and serve as a joke to scientists.

Climax: Sophie enters the room to show her research to the scientists.

Falling action: Sofia ends her presentation.

Resolution: Scientists applaud Sophie's research and presentation.

Explanation:

The scenario is the environment in which the story takes place.

The protagonist is the main character in the story, the one who moves the plot and where all the situations occur around this character.

Rising action is the part of the script where the tension starts to build up towards the climax.

Conflict is the element that shows what the protagonist will need to face.

Climax is the moment when the character will face his challenge.

Falling action occurs when the character fought the challenge he had.

Resolution is the part of the script that ends the story with the defeat or victory of the character.
