Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The text specifically mentions that le Carré's novels follow a "formula" that includes certain roles, situations, and language appropriate to the espionage genre. The term "cultural formula" accurately describes this consistent pattern in the author's work. "Enacted norm" refers to behaviors that are generally accepted within a particular culture or society, and does not accurately apply in this case. "Fashion cycle" and "innovation process" are also unrelated to le Carré's genre-specific writing style.
