Answer 1

It's really-really hard to understand where are these terms. It looks really messy. But I've defined these terms and sort 'em all, so check out my answers:

1. I'm definitely sure that universality is the quality of being understood or shared by all.

2. I guess this is about act II from Our Town by Thornton Wilder. So if my memory serves me well, the answer is: Flashbacks were used when Emily and George met in the drugstore dialogue.

3. Dialogue - speeches made by actors flashbacks. As you know, dialogue is the speech between two or more people. I remember dialogues in these flashbacks.

4. The word scrim has a lot of meanings but in this case I think this is a thin curtain transparent when lighted from behind.

5. I guess this is also about Our Town by Thornton Wilder and I'm definitely sure that the answer is: three years is the time elapsing between Act I and Act II.

6. I'm not very confident about this question, but this is the only option that left about time elapsing. So the answer is: nine years is the time elapsing between Act II and Act III.

7. Realism is exemplified by the rooster's crowing, the factory whistle, and so forth. Realism shows things as it is, and this is the most obvious answer as for me. 

8. According to Our Town by Thornton Wilder: Conflict is the idea that man wants things to remain the same and resists change.

9. Morality is the type of play of which Our Town could be considered an example morality. In my view it's the main theme of this play.

10. If I got it right there is only one option left, and the answer looks like this: Monologue is the device used by Wilder for exposition.
