What are the stages or elements of a plot?

Answer 1

1) Exposition/Introduction: This part introduces the characters and their personalities.

2) Rising Action: This part helps recognize and reveal the conflicts of the characters to another character or to himself. This also shows the progression of the story.

3) Climax: This Part shows suspense (Turning point) In the novel that suprises the reader.

4) Falling Action or Resolution: this part demonstrates how the character had done accordingly in the rising action. (If we have a rising action we have the falling action.)

Major plot elements would be:

• Character
• Conflict
• Complication
• Crisis-Climax
• Change
• Resolution

There is, however, another school of thought that involves 8 parts of a plot:

• Point of entrance
• exposition
• defining event
• rising action
• crisis
• falling action
• denouement
• closure

To be technically correct, a plot can be generalized as "whats going to happen" in a story. All stories are different, and some will have more or less plot points than 5.

Answer 2

The typical elements of a plot include exposition (introduction of characters and setting), rising action (development of the conflict), climax (the turning point), falling action (resolution of the conflict), and resolution (conclusion). These elements work together to create a coherent narrative structure.

Answer 3

Plot is just what happens in the story. The typical elements are usually described as:

• Exposition - a brief explanation of where and when the story takes place and introduction of characters
• Rising Action - events speed up as they head toward the climax
• Climax - the maximum point of tension or conflict in the story
• Falling Action - events are slowing down after the climax
• Denouement - everything it wrapped up and ended

You have to understand what they are. That means you learn the definitions of each term. Then, when you read a part of a story, you can figure out if it's a certain part or not.
