English

valentinak56 [21]4 years ago
7 0

In the book "Outliers: The Story of Success" by Malcolm Gladwell, the author tells the story of Christopher Langan. Langan was about to participate in a game show called "1 vs. 100," which tested the contestant's knowledge of trivia against that of 100 random people in the "mob." The author argues that Langan was "superbly qualified" for this task because of his incredible intelligence.

Some of the reasons why Langan was considered brilliant are:

  • An IQ of one ninety-five.
  • He was speaking by the age of six months.
  • He got a perfect score on his SATs, even though he fell asleep during the test.

What is plot structure and what do the elements such as exposition, rising action and so on mean?
Andrews [41]

Plot structure is how the entire story is set up with the parts being the exposition, the rising action, the climax, the falling action, and the resolution.

The exposition is the beginning of the story where the characters, setting, background and the basics are revealed.

The rising action is where the story gets a little more bumpy and the conflict is revealed.

The climax is height of the story. This is where the characters face the issue of the story

The falling action is what happens right after the climax. This is the effect that facing the issue has had on the story. It begins to wrap up the story.

The resolution is the ending of the story. Whether it is a cliffhanger or closes all the lose ends, it end with a resolution.

This poster is a clear example of <em>Persuasion.</em> Persuasion is used precisely to influence the reader, observers or audience. It is widely used in marketing a publicity to convince or “persuade” consumer to buy a specific product, or to see a movie. Since persuasion is also linked with morality and ethics, the poster uses it to persuade the Americans to be faithful to the country.  

“<em>someone Talked”</em> and point at an unknown person is using the ethic and moral of the people
