Which of these best reveals a story’s theme?

Answer
A
the length of the story’s rising action
B
the way the central conflict is resolved
C
the way the characters interact with the setting
D
the relationship between the protagonist and the antagonist

Explanation

A story’s theme is its central insight or message, and the ending often shows what the events have taught or proved. The way the central conflict is resolved reveals that message most clearly. The protagonist-antagonist relationship and setting can contribute to the theme, but neither is as direct as the resolution.
