The type of conflict which is implied in the above passage is Person vs. Self.

In the short story “The Gift of Magi,” the American writer O. Henry speaks about the feeling of love and the emotions related to it. The couple Della and Jim are so much in love with each other that they would sacrifice anything for their partner to be happy. Since they are poor, they both fall short in arranging money for the Christmas gift. Della wanted to buy a platinum chain for Jim’s watch, but her savings were not enough for the gift. Della decided to sell off her long hair and buy a platinum chain for Jim's watch while Jim sold off her watch to buy a beautiful comb for Della's beautiful hair. The last scene of the story reflects on their love for each other which is beyond the materialistic nature of the world. Their sacrifice for each other made them the wisest people like Magi.

Read the excerpt from Julius Caesar, act 3, scene 2.
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Antony wants to make the people angry by manipulating the words of Brutus and favoring Caesar.

Explanation:

In the excerpt of Antony's speech above, he clearly does not agree with Brutus' description of Caesar as an ambitious person. The rhetorical questions he asked and the answers to them show clearly that Caesar was not ambitious. Surely, a person who wept with the poor and three times rejected kingly crown was in no way an ambitious person.

While Brutus castigated Caesar in his speech, Antony helped the people see his good side. When he later showed the crowd the will left by Caesar where every citizen had a share in Caesar's wealth, the people then clearly understood that Brutus and Cassius were the traitors.
