What might the author be implying in the last line of “The last rung on the ladder”

English
1 answer:
ahrayia [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The last obstacle in the protagonist's journey/story.

Explanation:

Since there isn't much context to the story, I am assuming that "<em>The last rung on the ladder</em>" could either have a literal or figurative meaning. If it's a literal meaning, the character might actually be climbing a ladder and they're about to take the last step (the rung) to get to the top. However, it's more probable that the author means it in a figurative sense. I believe that "<em>The last rung</em>" is referring to a series of conflict in the protagonist's life, and the author refers to the ladder and its rungs as the conflicts.

<em>Protagonist's story</em> - the ladder (as a whole)

<em>Conflicts faced </em>- the rungs of the ladder (hence "<em>The last rung on the ladder</em>"

* Hopefully that made sense :))

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The correct answer is Option A - It helps make one physically engaged and active preventing lifestyle diseases.

Option B is not the correct answer because social dances do not cure lifestyle diseases rather it is more on helping in preventing lifestyle diseases.

Option C is correct also, however, Option A is more concise and complete. Therefore, it is not the correct answer.

Option D is not the correct answer it is more on the development of talent and not about the contribution to one's fitness and well-being

Hope this help! :)
