Question

Read the excerpt.

I lean my head over the train tracks and look for an oncoming flutter of headlights. Four thirty-seven p.m. I have less than a half hour to get to the other side of town, and there is no train in sight.

based on the info, where in the narrative is the excerpt from "train tracks" by lauren mizock most likley to be found?


exposition

resolution

falling action

climax

Answer 1

Exposition is where the excerpt from "Train Tracks" is found.

Answer 2

Answer: exposition

Exposition is the section of a text where we are first introduced to the conflict. In this case, the passage states that the speaker needs to get to the other side of town in less than a half hour, but that there is no train in sight. This is likely to be the conflict, and the fact that we are being introduced to it means this section is likely to belong to the exposition of the text.
