In the novel Wuthering Heights, what is the role of revenge in the main plot?

To provide a backdrop to the story
To provide a moral lesson to the reader
To act as a major source of tension between the characters
To provide insight into human nature

The correct answer is: To act as a major source of tension between the characters

In Wuthering Heights, revenge plays a crucial role in the main plot as it serves as a major source of tension between the characters. Throughout the novel, the desire for revenge fuels many characters' actions and drives the story forward. Other options are incorrect because while they may have some relevance to the novel, they do not directly relate to the role of revenge in the main plot. Revenge is not simply a backdrop or backdrop in the story, nor is it solely meant to provide a moral lesson or insight into human nature. Rather, it has a more significant impact as it contributes to the conflicts and ultimately leads to the tragic outcomes of the characters.
