As the bus pulled up to the stop, Renee steadied herself and slowly walked toward the edge of the sidewalk. Ever since the fire,

her life has taken a unexpected path. She was once beautiful, with bright blue eyes, rosy lips, and a head of dark, curly hair. Now, she shuffled slowly and had to be careful to not bump her delicate, scarred skin. The fire that burned down her home also attacked her. Instead of a light, vivacious 25-year-old, Renee resembled a 90 year old woman -- bald, twisted, and hunched over. Inside, she felt normal and glad to be alive. Outside, she was unrecognizable and frightening.
She sensed the other passengers shifting impatiently as the lift slowly lowered in order for her to step onto the bus. Impatience grew as she slowly fumbled for her bus card. That impatience turned into horror as she turned to find a seat. Nobody wanted to look at the disfigured and scarred face, let along sit next to it. Renee wanted to scream, “Iʼm just a person! Iʼm just like you!” but she had learned to suppress that urge and accept the fact that she was forever an outsider. A freak!

What best describes the conflict here?

external: character vs. character
external: character vs. nature
external: character vs. society
internal: character vs. self

It's either Character vs society or character vs nature. It could be either, honestly. Character vs nature because she was burnt by a fire, but it could be vs. society because most of the story focuses on what other people view her as. I believe the answer that they're looking for, however, is character vs society.

Personification
grin007 [14]

Hi, not entirely sure what you're asking here but I'll give it a shot.

This is indeed an example of personification. "The flower of the day," an object which lacks human sentience and features, is poetically described here as taking actions typically taken by humans. Flowers don't usually sigh or sit down; humans do this. This is why this is an example of personification – since the flower is the one who is supposedly taking these humanoid actions.

Hope this helps.

A "femme fatale" is what type of character?
andrey2020 [161]
I believe the best answer for this question would be D, "archetype." A femme fatale is a character who appears in many works of literature, although she takes on different forms. She possesses many of the same qualities and performs largely the same actions, making her an archetype. She may or may not be symbolic, solitary, or heroic, which means you can rule these options out as your answer because they are not definitive. Other examples of archetypes are the hero, the wicked witch, the wise old man, etc. Hope this helps.

seropon [69]
"C. Her stomach rumbled like an approaching train.
Simile is a rhetorical figure who uses the resource of comparison or similarity between terms. Its character is simpler than that of metaphor, and therefore appears more frequently than it is in both the classic epics and popular poetry."
