Nastasia [14]2 years ago
4 0

There are two main conflicts in John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men. One conflict is an internal one: Man verses Himself; the other conflict is external: Man verses Man.

In regard to the internal conflict, George feels responsible for Lennie. He made a promise to Lennie's aunt which forces George to care for Lennie.  This conflict is highlighted through Lennie's, inevitable, getting into trouble.  The problems that Lennie cause force George to feel held back and unable to move on for himself. In the end, George must come to terms with what is best for Lennie.

In regard to the external conflict, Man verses Man, this is exampled in many different ways throughout the novel. 1) Lennie against Curley. 2) Lennie against George. 3) Lennie against Curley's Wife. 4) George and Lennie against Society.  While examples 1-3 are basic physical conflicts, example 4 is not.  Lennie and George are conflicted with society as a while because they cannot find a place where they fit in.  They, like many ranchers at the time, would find work, make enough money to move on, and leave.  George and Lennie wanted more; they wanted a place to call their own.  Unfortunately, there is no place for them.

How does Marcia’s personality differ from Cherry’s in the outsiders
sveta [45]

Cherry and Marcia are two popular girls who become friends with The Outsiders narrator, Ponyboy, his brothers, and his Greaser friends. When Cherry first meets Ponyboy, they bond over their unusual first names. She tells him, ''My name's Sherri, but I'm called Cherry because of my hair. Cherry Valance.'' Marcia is ''a little smaller than Cherry. She was cute, but that Cherry Valance was a real looker.'' The girls are dating Soc boys, but they're the first Socs that Ponyboy and his friends get to know, and it gives them a different perspective on their rivals. Cherry and Marcia are pretty, friendly, and fun.
