    Planteamiento (exposition), nudo (complication/conflict), and desenlace (resolution) are the three classic narrative stages.

  2. When reading a Spanish advertisement (anuncio publicitario), the phrase 'Llame ahora y reciba un descuento exclusivo' uses the imperative to:

  3. In AP Spanish literary analysis, 'el narrador en primera persona' limits the reader's perspective because:

    Answer: The reader only accesses events and feelings the narrator personally experiences or knows

    First-person narrators are unreliable or limited because readers only receive information filtered through that single perspective.

    Answer: An action performed by an unspecified or general subject

    The impersonal 'se' construction avoids specifying who performs the action, equivalent to English 'one,' 'they,' or 'you' in general statements.

  7. In a Spanish poem using 'verso libre' (free verse), the reader should expect:

    Answer: No fixed meter, rhyme, or syllable count
