(50 pts) Cameron's father wouldn't allow her to play with her friends until her room was spotless. Cameron hated cleaning; it wa
s boring. She sat on her bed, taking in the chaos that surrounded her. There were piles of books on her desk, her bed was unmade, and her clean laundry sat in a basket by the door. It would take forever to tidy this room! Suddenly, Cameron had a brilliant idea. She rummaged through her sports bag and found a stopwatch. She would turn the chore into a game by timing herself. Cameron started the timer and buzzed frantically about the room, putting clothes and books away before making the bed. About fifteen minutes later, her room was completely organized. Satisfied with her time, she now needed her father's approval. Upon inspection, Cameron's father seemed happy with the results. With her chores complete, Cameron raced outside to meet her friends. 4) What is the moment of highest tension in the story? A) Cameron's father tells her to clean her room. B) Cameron starts the stopwatch before cleaning the room. C) Cameron finds a stopwatch to use to time herself. D) Cameron makes her bed and cleans her room.
Having seen this question before, I believe it is B.
Explanation:
The moment of highest tension is the climax of the story. Cameron's father tells her to clean her room, signaling the introductory portion of the story (option A). Then Cameron finds a stopwatch to use to time herself after rummaging, signaling the rising action of the story (option C). Option B would be your climax, seeing as she started the stopwatch and raced on to cleaning. After that Cameron is cleaning her room, signaling your falling action (option D). Out of all the options, it makes the most sense.
The event which is associated with the peripeteia (or turn of events) in the play is Teiresias prophecy. It changed the whole course of the drama afterwards.
D. Students. It would affect the student body the most, and I doubt teachers would like to or need to "take a stand on what you wear". Hope this helps :)
