Which term matches the definition 'the answer or solution to the problem or struggle'?

• A. Resolution
• B. Inferences
• C. Textual Evidence
• D. Setting

Answer: (A)

The idea here is a word that means the answer or solution to a problem or struggle. In stories, the resolution is the part where the main conflict is settled and things come to a close, giving you the outcome and effectively providing the solution to what characters have been dealing with. This sense of bringing closure or solving the issue is what makes it the best match for the definition.

The other terms refer to different reading concepts: inferences are conclusions you draw from clues in the text; textual evidence is the actual quotes or details from the text used to support a point; setting is the time and place where the story occurs. Because none of those specifically denote the act of solving a problem or ending a struggle, they don’t fit as well as the term described.
