Ishtar Gate was constructed by the Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar II circa 575 BCE. It was the eighth gate of the city of Babylon and was the main entrance into the city. The Ishtar Gate was part of Nebuchadnezzar's plan to beautify his empire's capital. During the first half of the 6th century BCE, he also restored the temple of Marduk and built the renowned wonder: the Hanging Gardens as part of this plan. The magnificence of the Ishtar Gate was so well known that it made the initial list of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. However, it was later replaced by the Lighthouse of Alexandria, but some authors wrote that the "Gates of Ishtar" and "Walls of Babylon" should still be considered one of the wonders.

Which plot point can be used as the exposition?

gulaghasi [49]

Hello. You have not shown the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try to help you as best I can.

An exposition is an element of a plot. It represents the moment when the story is being presented in a text, that is, it is in the exposition, that the text presents the characters, the setting and the main points of the story that will be worked on during the plot. A point plot, on the other hand, is also known as a turning point and is the moment, in a text, that an event occurs and modifies the entire narrative, presenting unexpected situations that take the story in another direction.

When evaluating the answer options you presented, the first one is the one that most resembles a point plot that can be used as an exposition, but you can only know this with a thorough reading of the text and this reading is you who must do. In short, a point plot that is presented as an exposition is the moment in the text, when a situation that modifies the story happens and that same situation is presenting something important in the plot.
