Show transcript
The purpose of the climax is to describe the main action and take the suspense to its highest point. The climax of ‘A Christmas Carol’ describes Scrooge’s encounter with the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come (Future). Scrooge feels great regret and sorrow upon seeing the future visions and realises he must change his ways. Precise and descriptive vocabulary, including 'show and tell' is used to convey an ominous atmosphere. Direct speech and Scrooge’s inner thoughts are used to convey Scrooge’s fraught emotions.
