It starts with background information, such as characters and setting.  The next part of the ride is the big hill. it is the rising action, a series of events take place and build the excitement of the story.The top of the big hill on the roller coaster is the story’s climax. This is the most exciting part.During the falling action, the characters begin to solve the conflict. During the resolution we come to the end of the journey, the reader can see how the characters have changed and how the conflict has been solved.
