The correct answer is B. A major character plays a big role in the plot, while a minor character has a less important storyline.
Explanation:
In literature, a character refers to any person or even animal or entity that is part of a story in novels, short stories, and other narratives. Additionally, characters can be classified according to their role in the development of the plot and their features; in general terms, characters can be major or minor. Major characters are three-dimensional characters or complex ones including the protagonist of the story and other characters important character in which the story focus and who play an important role as their actions developed the plot. On the other hand, minor characters are only defined through a few features and mainly support the actions of major characters or serve as background or scenario in the story. This means, opposite to major characters minor characters do not have an important necessary role in the plot or story. Thus, the main difference between major a minor characters is that major characters play a big role in the plot as their actions developed it and they are the focus of the story, while minor characters have a less important storyline as they just support the actions in the story but do not develop the plot or change during it.

<u>Compare and contrast W. H. Auden's "Musée des Beaux Arts" and William Carlos Williams's "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus." </u>
<u>What similarities and differences do you see in the way the poets present ideas to the reader?</u>
The most important similarity between W.H. Auden and William Carlos Williams' poems is that both describe Pieter Brueghel's painting <em>Landscape With The Fall of Icarus</em>. Both poets illustrate the scene and all its surroundings with detail. Both poets exemplify with imagery the painting's scene and what it depicts.
<u>Nevertheless, the poets do differ in other elements:</u>
- Auden presents his poem using free verse and divides it into two long stanzas without any rhyme. Although William Carlos Williams doesn't use rhyme either, he keeps a more traditional construction by dividing the poem into six stanzas with three lines in each.
- Auden reflects on suffering and the burden of routine depicted in the painting with more delicate and meditative observations. He mentions Icarus in the second stanza and contemplates his psyche in a deeper way. Williams, on the other hand, presents his ideas in a concise manner. He states the reader the facts and describes the painting with concrete examples. He mentions Icarus since the first stanza but doesn't concentrate on what he might have felt or what others might be feeling in that precise moment.
- Auden sensed the painting and tells the reader his experience when he saw it. Williams is an observer. He tells the reader a descriptive summary of what he saw without delving into his inner experience and thoughts.
