Two adjectives that could be used to describe Winston Churchill's May 1940 speech are determination and courage. The determination is to resist oppression no matter how much "blood, toil, tears and sweat" is required and also where he says " I say it is to wage war by land, sea and air". Re courage, it is exemplified where he says, "It is victory-victory in spite of all terrors".

Laura's interactions with her husband reveal the conflicts experienced by her, as instead of openly disagreeing with her husband’s desire to return to the Dominican Republic, she criticizes the foreign papers he reads.

<h3>What is a conflict?</h3>
