QUESTION 2
Once the boys catch the fish, the main conflict seems to be over. Which best describes why the short story “The Strangers That Came to Town” continues long after the main conflict is resolved?
The first conflict in the story revealed a much larger conflict between the Duvitches by the other people who live on Syringa Street. The narrator’s family befriends the Duvitches to resolve this conflict.
The narrator needed more time to present the themes after the conflict had been resolved.
In a story that involves multiple characters, a writer will often include information about what happens after the main conflict is resolved.
Because this is a short story about a family and not about action or suspense, multiple resolutions are needed to explain what happens to the family.
