Explanation:
The plot in a story is the sequence of events which begins with the introduction of the characters and ultimately ends in a resolution.

2. It is followed by a rising action where the writer builds on the conflict in the story thus creating suspense.
3. The climax is that point where the characters make a serious decision or action that changes the direction of the story.
4. The falling action is where the writer tones down the suspense in the story by revealing the results of the decisions and actions of the characters.
5. The resolution is that point where every bit of the story is reconciled and the readers are now aware of the new personalities of the characters based on their actions in the story.

Answer: D. Imitative yet fresh
Explanation:
Koch´s poem is a parody, meaning that it purposefully makes fun of something. In this case, the author mocks a serious composition by imitating its style or tone. "Variations on a Theme by William Carlos
Williams," as many other poems by Koch, used satire to express his disagreement with the idea of poetry being solemn and not suitable for humor. By using a similar structure and theme (having done something wrong and providing an excuse for it), Koch mocks "This is Just to Say," by William Carlos Williams. And to make it more clear, Koch makes his character a doctor, just like Williams, who was a poet in his free time after working in the hospital.
