Rikki-Tikki-Tavi

This is the closest I can get the answers, on my own.

RIKKI - TIKKI - TAVI

Characters
Rikki - tikki - tavi  : mongoose
Darzee  : a tailorbird bird
Darzee's wife  : a female tailorbird bird
Chuchundra  : muskrat
Teddy  : son ( Human)
Teddy's mother, Alice  : wife/mother ( human)
Teddy's father  : father/husband (human)
Nag  : Big and black cobra,  husband of Nagaina
Nagaina  : another cobra , wife of Nag

Setting:Segowlee Cantonment, India


The exposistion: Is when they are introducing the characters and the setting, and the inciting or basic situation, is when Rikki-Tikki-Tavi is washed out of his home and found by Teddy and his mother, Alice.

( The exposistion is the setting, characters and the basic or inciting situation.)

The Rising action:Is when Rikki first meets Darzee and Nag, and manages to bit Nagaina, when Rikki saves Teddy and kills Karait, when Rikki overhears Nag's and Nagaina's plan to get rid of the people and Rikki, and Rikki kills Nag in the bathroom sluice, and when Rikki crushes and bites all of Nagaina's eggs expect for one.

[ Note: I put down only the ones that stood out the most for the rising action. There may be more.]

( The Rising Action: are conflicts and complications.  Conflicts: A conflict is a struggle between two opposing forces.)

The climax: Is when Nagaina is on the veranda next to Teddy's bare leg, ready to strike.

( The climax: Is the turning point or high point of the story at which the eventual outcome becomes clear.)

The Falling Action: is when Rikki starts fighting Nagaina, and when Nagaian runs with her egg, with Rikki running after her. Darzee's wife manages to slow her down enough , to let Rikki catch up and bit Nagaina's tail. Then Nagina drags Rikki into a hole.

( The falling action: are the events that follow a climax.)

The resolution: Simply put, is when Rikki kills Nagaina. You should add a little more if you want a good grade.

( The resolution:is the final outcome)
