Plot:
-introduction:
the introduction tells us that it is 6 o'clock somewhere sunny and the first character introduced is going to sit by a swimming pool and have a beer
-conflict
the conflict in this story is man vs man (because the Amerian boy is versing the man from the south), man vs himself (because the American boy is struggling to decide if he wants to do the bet or not, and also because the man from the south because clearly he has a gambling problem or something if he always chopping off fingers for a bet)
-rising action
the rising action in this story begins when the man from the south proposes the bet to the Anerican boy, and then from there it keeps going as they decide whether or not to do the bet, and then even more when the American boy agrees to it
-climax
the climax is when the man from the south and the American boy are actually in the room doing the bet and the boy is lighting the lighter over and over as the man holds a knife above his hand, the readers tension is growing and growing anticipating what's going to happen
-falling action
the falling action is when the woman comes in and stops the man from continuing on, the reader isn't on edge anymore
-conclusion
the woman tells the boy that he bets with everyone and she herself had to bet to win his car and then the man sees that the woman only has 2 fingers left
Character:
- protagonist
the protagonist would be the American boy because he is the force opposing the antagonist (the man from the south)
- antagonist
the antagonist is the man from the south because he is opposing the Anerican boy
-static
a static character would be the British girl because her opinion stays the same the whole story (that she thinks it's a bad idea) and she doesn't change throughout the story (could also be flat because she doesn't have many characteristics)
-round
a round character would be the man from the south (Carlos) because we learn in the beginning that he wears nice white suits and Panama hats and smokes cigars and he offers up a Cadillac and we know that he has an accent and is from Italy or somewhere Spanish (could also be dynamic because by the end of the story we learn he is not actually like that and that he only has all that because of bets)
- flat
a flat character would be the man at the start of the story because all we know is that he is on vacation in Jamaica, lounging by the pool drinking a beer. we don't know his name or anything about him
- stock character (stereotype)
I think the American boy could be a bit of a stock character because he is out at the pool picking up girls, and then when offered the bet he wants to show off so he accepts it, but really inside he is scared
