L. Frank Baum’s “The Cowardly Lion and Hungry Tiger,” begins with the Cowardly Lion deciding he wants to tear a person to pieces and the Hungry Tiger deciding he wants to eat a “fat baby.” The story progresses with the lion and tiger walking around the Emerald City looking for a person and a baby.  However, when they find the objects of their quest, instead of tearing the person to pieces, the lion helps her up after she falls down and “with much gentleness carried her into her house.”  And, instead of eating a lost baby the tiger finds crying for its mother, the tiger “safely deposited [it] beside its mother,” which just so happens to be the same person the lion helps.  Irony can be seen here in how the opposites of the beginning intentions of their adventure occur—helping instead of killing.

Answers:

  • "I can replace the window," he said, putting his arm around my shoulders, "but I can't replace you."
  • The audience stood up, cheering wildly, and I've never felt so relieved in my life.

The resolution paragraph of a narrative is the section in which the main conflict of the story is resolved. In the first section, the character appears to be having an epiphany. An epiphany is a sudden realization, most often triggered by a new event or piece of information. Epiphanies are often found towards the end of narratives.

In the second example, the character's conflict is the anxiety regarding the reaction of the audience. As the audience stands up and cheers, the conflict is resolved. This is why the character feels "relieved."
