Question

In which stage does the author build the action to a climax?

falling action

conflict

resolution

Answer 1

The stage in which the author builds the action to a climax is typically referred to as the "conflict." This is the part of the story where the main tension and challenges are developed, leading up to the climax, where the peak of the action occurs. The other stages you mentioned, "falling action" and "resolution," come after the climax and deal with the aftermath and conclusion of the story.
