In the story of the Three Little Pigs, which of the following identifies the climax?
Once upon a time, there were three little pigs. The pigs lived in a small house with their mum. One day, their mum sent them off to build houses of their own.
Then, one day, a big bad wolf came walking along the road. He saw the first little pig in his straw house. With an evil glint in his eye, he knocked on the first little pig’s door.
The wolf huffed and he puffed, and he puffed and he huffed, but he could not blow down the brick house. As quick as a flash, he climbed up on to the roof and into the chimney.
With a loud howl, the foolish wolf jumped out of the pot, ran out of the house, and off down the road! The three little pigs cheered loudly.
The big bad wolf was never seen again, and the three little pigs lived happily ever after!
