I think the answer is most likely option "C" as denouement means the end of a book, play etc when everything is explained
try one look dictionary and type the word in it might help you
Sorry, not going to do your HW for you. Ever heard of a dictionary?
None of the above ! It's from the French for untying a knot and means the resolution of the play, the final outcome.
Do I win a holiday in a luxury five star resort like the Datai Langkawi in Malaysia if I get this one right?

Of the choices above, by the way, (d) and (c) sound like the device known as dramatic irony, whereby the audience is told something in the course of the play which is unknown to some of the characters or, more usually, the principal character, who therefore continue in ignorance of it and act accordingly. The audience then feels like wincing as the character goes blissfullly to his doom !
Don't get it DTC. Is this dramatic irony in reverse; the secret is being kept from us but ngolden knows it all along?
