Question

the ____ of a story can be applied to other works of literature or to life.
options:

• setting
• plot
• theme
• characters

Explanation:

The question is about identifying the element of a story that can be applied to other works or life. The theme of a story is its underlying message or central idea, which is often universal and applicable to other contexts (other literature or real - life situations). Setting refers to the time and place of a story, plot is the sequence of events, and characters are the people/entities in the story. These are less likely to be universally applicable in the same way as a theme.

Answer:

B. Theme
