Answer 2

In "First Love", by Judith Ortiz Cofer, the author uses the falling action to affect the story. B. She provides resolution by presenting the conclusions she drew about the events of the memoir.

The falling action takes place after the climax of a story, that is to say, it comes when the problem resolves. It is a part of the plot of a story. The elements of a plot are exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. After the great tide of the climax, the reader expects the falling action to feel some relief. It is like a passage from climax to resolution. In this case, the narrator draws important conclusions like this one

"...a lesson...I have never forgotten: the object is not always to win, but most times simply to keep your opponent (synonymous at times with "the loved one") guessing."
