Answer and Explanation:

I'll provide an answer against the statement "The fast-food industry can give valuable work experience to teenagers.”

The fast-food industry is not at all concerned with the value the experience of working in it will add to someone's life. As was stated in the text, they hire teenagers "because they are less expensive to hire than adults, but also because their youthful inexperience makes them easier to control." The experience those workers will acquire from that job is limited, probably even useless in other areas. A McDonald's employee does not learn how to cook - they can't leave McDonald's to suddenly work at a regular restaurant. They have machines beeping all around them, letting them know when the food is supposed to be ready.

Answer:

I agree that fast-food jobs can give work experience to teenagers. At the same time, I wonder how valuable this work experience is. In Fast Food Nation, Schlosser mentions that teenagers with these jobs are not paid well and often do not learn new skills. In addition, time on the job can take away from their focus on school.

Reverend Buckminster licked his lips. "What were you doing on Malaga Island?"
babunello [35]

1. The opposing forces are Rev. Buckminster and his son Turner Buckminster.

2. It is a man vs man/ individual vs. individual/ person vs person conflict.

3. The conflict is related to the setting for the story happens during the racist prejudice era.

<h3>How, explain your answer briefly?</h3>

The conflict in a narrative story is the contrast in the forces or elements in play. These opposing forces try to suppress each other, further forwarding the plot.

The conflict in the passage from the story "Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy" by Gary D. Schmidt is between Turner Buckminster and his father Rev, Buckminster. The Rev. does not like his son hanging around with people such as Lizzie, who are of a colored section. The setting of the story being during the racism, Turner had been prevented by his father to stay away from the colored people. But rather than doing what he's told, he began to hang around more and more with Lizzie. Thus, the opposing forces of the conflict are the father and son.

The type of conflict is man vs. man or individual/ person vs. individual/person. This type of conflict happens when a man or an individual have conflicting interests from another individual.

The conflict in this scene is related to the setting for the interests of the two individuals are different from each other. Since the theme of racial discrimination is prevalent in the story, the conflict in the two individuals' beliefs also led to the further advancement of the story.

Thus, his could be the answer.
