Little Billy lay down in his racecar-shaped bed and tried to sleep. Suddenly, the shutters of his window began to rattle and the

knob of his bedroom door started twitching. Billy sat up. The door flew open and the ghost of the house's previous owner floated in, his clothing in rags, his face covered in scars, his shoulders hunched from the many chains draped over his torso. "I must have vengeance!" the ghost declared. "Well, go have vengeance somewhere else tonight," said Billy, as he sighed. "I have school tomorrow." He plopped back down, covered up, and went to sleep. Which statement best explains how the plot of the story helps develop the main character?​

Answer:

B. Billy's response to the ghost shows that he is not easily frightened .

Explanation:

The plot of a story is the frame or sequence of events that occur to push forward or move the story. This can be achieved through various means, one of which is the characterization of the people involved in the story.

In the given passage, the character of Billy and his reaction to the ghost's demands of getting vengeance shows he is not easily frightened by his presence. Not everyone can react as he did, but for him, he simply retorted <em>"[to] go have vengeance somewhere else tonight"</em> for he has school tomorrow. His matter-of-fact reaction helps in developing the main character.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

Dimas [21]
