All stories have plots. Go read any story and what happens is the plot.
Sure! Here's a simple example of a story using the classic plot structure:
Introduction: A young boy named Jack receives a magical book from his grandfather. Rising Action: Jack discovers that the book can transport him to different worlds and decides to embark on an adventure. Climax: Jack faces a powerful enemy in the Land of Shadows and must use all his courage and wit to defeat them. Resolution: Jack emerges victorious, having learnt valuable lessons and grown stronger from his journey.

There is no plot structure in 'A Clean Well Lighted Place'. It is the popular example of a plotless story.
A common and good sentence using the word plot is; "The characters within your story often carry the plot." There are also other ways to use the word plot. Such as, "Any story has a particular plot and structure in which all characters play their part."
exposition, climax, rising action, falling action conclusion
The plot of a story usually consists of exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and denouement. In the case of a tragedy, the denouement is called catastrophe; in other works, it is called resolution.
Yes, a story can have structure without a traditional plot. Structure refers to the way a story is organized, such as through flashbacks, alternating perspectives, or thematic connections, even if there isn't a clear sequence of events leading to a resolution. In narratives without a plot, the structure can still create cohesion and meaning.
A movie with a parallel plot contains similar characteristics with another story's plot. An example of this would be Romeo and Juliet, and West Side Story.
The phrase 'the unravelling of a plot' is used to describe how a writer builds up a story. It is commonly used when describing how the structure of the writing or the vocabulary used reveal the plot of the writing (commonly a novel or a biography). The plot of some writing is the story behind it - an example of this is 'the Lord of the Rings', in which a fellowship of people go on a quest to destroy the 'One Ring'. That is the plot of the story. The plot can be unravelled using a series of subplots. In the Lord of the Rings, subplots include the heroes travelling through dangerous lands, fighting wars and falling in love.
The last ending of the story is her sister is died because of the centipede
The spaniards attempt to find the man that killed his father. It was like an addition to the plot of the movie/ story. In other words, a story inside a story. Storyception kinda.
climactic structure plot begins late in the story, scenes locales and characters are restricted
The events that make up a story are called the plot. The plot consists of a series of connected events that unfold in a particular sequence to create the narrative structure of a story.
The concept of plot structure has evolved over time, with various scholars and writers contributing to its development. Aristotle's "Poetics" is often cited as an early exploration of dramatic structure, while Gustav Freytag introduced the "pyramid" model in the mid-19th century. Contemporary writers and theorists continue to explore and experiment with different approaches to plot structure.
