All of the given options can be effective ways to identify a symbol in a literary work. However, one of the best ways might be to look for an object or detail that the author refers to repeatedly. When an author consistently brings attention to a particular object or detail throughout a story, it indicates that it holds symbolic meaning. This repetition suggests that the author wants readers to pay special attention to that specific element and consider its deeper significance in relation to the themes and messages of the work.
