Although they contain the same elements, and the same information, plot is not the same as story. The story reports events in their chronological order, the plot is the order in which the text presents them. They frequently do not coincide. Events are not usually reported in the order in which they occur. They are scrambled. This can be done to create dramatic suspense or to highlight certain events. In reading a text, we form a mental model of the sequence of events being reported. (Chilton, Paul: “Text Linguistics”, in: Culpeper, Jonathan, Katamba, Francis, et. al. (eds): English Language.
