The detail which is an example of internal conflict in "The Monkey's Paw" is:

a. Mr. White doubts that the monkey's paw can really grant wishes.

When the Major told the story about the Monkey's paw to the White Family they didn't trust the story. It was for them a tale which can never happen in real life. The conversation between Mr. and Mrs. White regarding the Monkey's paw had a humorous approach. Their son Herbert was also excited to test the reality of the paw and become rich by making a wish from it.

A) mr.white doubts that the monkey's paw can really grant wishes.
It would be a) because Mr. White is in a way fighting with his mind.

It's more internal than the rest because:
b) is a man vs. man conflict
c) is also a man vs. man conflict
d) is a man vs. environment conflict

Hope I was able to help at least a little bit :)

What does John say that he wants instead of comfort? What right does Mond suggest that he is claiming?

mezya [45]

Answer:

John demanded " I don’t want comfort. I want God, I want poetry, I want real danger, I want freedom, I want goodness. I want sin".

Mustapha Mond suggests he's claiming "the right to be unhappy".

Explanation:

Aldoux Huxley's Brave New World is set in a dystopian world where the off-springs of the people were genetically engineered and already classed into their predestined castes from birth. The setting of the story is in the year 2540 AD, and deals with the theme of science and efficiency, away from humanistic emotions and feelings.

In chapter 17, John, the son of Linda and the Director of the Hatchery and Bernard Marx along with Helmholtz Watson are exiled for causing a scandal in the society. When told about how everything has been engineered to be comfortable for the people, John demands that he did not "want comfort [but rather] God, poetry, real danger, freedom, goodness [and] sin".

At this, Mustapha Mond, the "Resident World Controller for Western Europe" suggests that John is claiming "the right to be unhappy", for everything that he's just demanded is against the way of their scientifically engineered world. And with his demand, he's claiming all the ills of human life that the "New World" is offering.
