Fill in the blank

I can't find these answers anywhere
 
I'm not sure of the first question.

The answer for the second is debatable. Obviously everything has to have a beginning, middle and end but it's not the mark of a well made play. In order to fulfill the role of a tragic hero, said hero must undergo internal/external conflict and have a catharsis. In my opinion, a tragic hero is the mark of a good play. A play would be boring if it had no drama. But in ancient Greece, the storyline was known by everyone before they saw the play and the way the story was portrayed was the appeal.

Dramatic reality? Not sure, I just remember my Classics teacher going on a lot about the sacrifice of reality in Medea to make way for dramatic reality.
