Darius was convinced that Kennedy High could improve its morning routine. The student parking lot was a jumble of squealing tires, honking horns, and near-misses with pedestrians.

Answer 1

The conflict in this excerpt is that the main character, Darius, is concerned about this situation that takes place at his school every morning and he wants to do something about it, but his friends make fun of him and are not interested in what he has to say. So, Darius on one hand has a list with possible solutions, like early-arriver incentives, but on the other hand he doesn't get the support he needs in order to propose them because he seems to be the only one who is concerned about this situation.

Answer 2

the third answer or D is correct (character versus society)
