How can you identify a symbol that an author uses in a story?

AA symbol is always something concrete—like a bird or a whale or a ship—that is directly related to the main character.

BA symbol is something big—like the sun, or a mountain, or a whale—that affects the main character.

CA symbol is an ordinary object that takes on significance outside itself and stands for something greater.

DA symbol is always something inanimate, like love, or joy, or hatred, or jealousy.
