A student is writing a paragraph about "Broken Chain" that makes the point that Alfonso’s conflict in the story is mainly an int

ernal one. What would be the best illustration of this point? He hates the way he looks and spends hours “trying to herd his teeth into place with his thumb.” He decides against dyeing his hair because he knows his mother “wouldn’t go for it” and his father would call him a “sissy.” He races down the street on his bike “as cool as he could be” with his hands “stuffed into his pockets.” He feels his “stomach knot up” and threatens to run Ernie over with his bike when they talk about Sandra.

What is Sylvia's internal conflict as the story progresses, and why do you think she makes the choice that she does? Use evidenc
melamori03 [73]

Sylvia's internal conflict is whether to tell the hunter where he can find the white heron, even when she would get a lot of money for such information.

In my opinion, she makes the choice not to tell the hunter about the bird because ever since she moves to the country, she learns to love nature and wildlife. When she climbs the tree and sees the heron, she feels as free as the bird, and she is able to see the world from the heron's view. She feels identified with the animal, which is unrestrained and independent. As a consequence, she realizes that she does not want to take part in its death.
