Question

the falling action is the events in the plot where the action slows down and leads up to the resolution. which sentence would be included as part of a storys falling action? carrie slowly sipped her tea as she got ready for the mornings work. john ran for his life as the tornado bore down on him. gary was relieved as his team lifted him on their shoulders. they had won the championship.

Explanation:

The falling action occurs after the climax and before the resolution. In a story, the climax is the most intense moment. Here, Gary's team winning the championship is likely the climax. The sentence about Gary being relieved as his team lifts him on their shoulders shows the action slowing down (after the intense moment of winning) and leading towards the resolution (the end of the story). Carrie's action is more of a daily routine (could be exposition or part of the rising action if leading to something). John's action is high - intensity (could be part of the rising action or climax if the tornado is a major event).

Answer:

Gary was relieved as his team lifted him on their shoulders. They had won the championship.
