Answer:

B. Character vs. self.

Explanation:

In the story "The Land" part 2 by Mildred D. Taylor, we see the character of Paul riding Ghost Wind. Paul is a mixed race of a white father and a black mother, but whose father made sure that he enjoys the same rights as that of his white brothers. Set in  the post slavery era, the story revolves around the lives of Paul and his best friend Mitchell, who is the son of a worker at Paul's father's farm.

The given excerpt is from when Paul decided to let Mitchell ride his horse Ghost Wind, even though he was not supposed to ride it, considering he was the son of a worker. The decision of Paul in allowing his best friend to ride the horse is against their very upbringing, for workers have inferior rights. Mitchell, being the son of a worker, is supposed to be lower than Paul, his master's son. But foregoing all these, Paul decides to let him enjoy. The particular excerpt is a conflict of interest between Paul's character and his own self. He even states that he "<em>don't know what possessed me in that moment to say the next thing I did"</em>. This shows the conflict he has within himself.

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

The plot of "The Signalman" reaches a climax when signalman dies. As you know, the main characteristic of climax is that it is the most emotional part of a story that provides a lot of interest and suspense to a reader. The death of signalman is the highest point of emotional intensity of the plot as the loved protagonist unexpectedly (or undesirably) passes away and put an end to the story.

Read this paragraph.
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

The paragraph has a first-person narrator sharing an eyewitness account.

Explanation:

The authors writes/talks in the first person using words like "I, me, my, mine, we, us, our, ours." "I, me, my, mine" are called first-person singular pronouns. These are pronouns you use when you are stating you did or are doing. "We, us, our, ours" are first person possessive pronouns. This is when you are talking about something <em>and </em>another person are doing. There are also possessive pronouns which are slightly more complicated because they can fall into more than one category of pronouns. Possessive pronouns are used when you or you and more than one person own or are in possession of an object.

"First-person singular pronouns are 'I,' 'me,' 'my,' and 'mine. ' First-person plural pronouns are 'we,' 'us,' 'our,' and 'ours. ' First-person possessive pronouns are 'my,' 'mine,' 'our,' and 'ours. ' First-person subjective pronouns are 'I,' 'we,' 'my,' and 'our."

Not only did the quote come from that website but I would recommend going there for information.

This is the first question I have ever answered, seeing as though I made my account about 10 minutes prior to this, so I hope this helps and that it wasn't too bad.
