Answer:
Exposition
Explanation:
Plot is, basically, a sequence of events that makes the story.
It has five basic parts or elements:
- exposition (introduction) where the main characters and setting are introduced
- rising action is a part where the main conflict is introduces
- climax is a part where the conflict is being resolved and is the turning point of the story
- falling action is a part where we see the results and consequences of the actions taken during the climax
- resolution is an ending part of the story
Now, in the given passage, we get to know about Ashley's characteristics, the way she spends her days or maybe start drawing some conclusions about her. We don't know what will happen next, only some information about the character. So, the best answer would be that this passage is an introduction.
