Answer 1

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Ambiguity in literature refers to all those events, circumstances, story-lines or symbols in a context that carry multiple meanings.

A single element can have several interpretations and this allows the reader to engage in an active manner in the story by wondering about the meanings implied by the author according to personal experiences or reactions.

Ambiguity in literature means that the author is deliberately leaving certain meanings within the text unclear, and so when a reader is analyzing a part of the text, they can come up with multiple meanings, thus A is the correct answer.
