2.1 Use plot to make sense of what happens in the story
ОглавлениеTo do:
Read the following two sentences. Explain the difference between the two sentences.
•Reverend Kumalo travels from Ndotsheni to Johannesburg, where he looks for his son.
•Reverend Kumalo travels from Ndotsheni to Johannesburg to look for his son because he is afraid that he might never see him again.
The two sentences show the difference between a story and a plot. The first sentence forms part of the story; it tells you what happened. The second sentence forms part of the plot of a story; it explains the reason why Reverend Kumalo went to look for his son. It links the action (Reverend Kumalo travels to Johannesburg to search for his son) to one of the main ideas in the story (fear).
