Answer:
D. Thoreau regrets conforming to the expectations of others.
Explanation:
The figure of speech he is using is irony - he says that he <em>behaved so well </em>even though he considers that behavior to be bad. His neighbors, or rather the people around him, behave a certain way that Thoreau doesn't really approve of. However, in order to conform, or fit in with the rest of the society, he behaved in the same way they did, which made him disgusted and want to repent after having betrayed his ideals.
In a more complex plot diagram, you will often see these categories going up and down the stairs to the climax in order:
Exposition/Beginning, Rising Action, Climax/Middle, Falling Action, and then the Resolution/End.
This helps to remember because the rising action (building of the conflict) would be categorized and placed before the climax. The climax should also be known as when the conflict is finally brought to the surface. A character should spend their entire falling action trying to find a way to resolve it. Because of this, your answer is going to be 'in the beginning.' This is when you are going to see the conflict start to build as it struggles to reach the middle or the climax. Remember that the climax is most likely where you are going to hit the breaking point and major importance of the conflict. You are rising (action) and building up towards it.
The suffix “-able”
Suffix is an affix mostly paced in the end or after a word’s original root. It takes on many cases to describe a word either in verb or adjective. For example running notice that –ning is the suffix in this word while beautifully, take the root word of beautiful and the suffix –ly as we break down the words.
