which a story is told. A plot is the sequence of event and conflict is
the struggle in the story.

2.ANALYSIS
 The Different Literary Elements

1. SETTING- Time and location that a story takes place

2. PLOT- is the sequence of events and their significance in
the unfolding of the story.

ELEMENTS OF PLOT SEQUENCE

1. Exposition- The beginning of the story

2. Rising action- this event creates the central conflict in the
story.
3. Climax- Highest point of a story
4. Falling action- the events and the complication begins to
resolve
5. Denouement- point at which the conflict is ended, or
resolved.

3. CONFLICT or the struggle of opposing forces in a story. It

is usually a driving force that makes you react to what you
read or watch. It is presented in different forms such as:

 Man against Self is a psychological battle or dilemma.

between two or more individuals.

powerful force than man himself or herself.
