The play has a lot of absurd things in it that would never happen in real life. For example, Jack and Algernon eat out at expensive restaurants and then purposely leave without paying. But they are both super rich and they are well known in London so that doesn't make any sense. They can afford to pay and they could easily be tracked down.

valkas [14]

Answer:

A. Man vs. Man - Carol and Brandi race for the gold medal.

B. Man vs. Self - Miguel struggles with feelings of guilt.

C. Man vs. Nature - Farmers experience a terrible drought.

D. Man vs. Higher power - Jonah is corrected by God.

E. Man vs. Society - Reverend Mundo protests Sunday sporting events.

Explanation:

The various forms of types of conflicts that are to be found in any narrative may be between man and nature, man with man, with self or even with the society. All these conflicts may also show the battle that the individual has to get through in order to move on with his life.

The types of conflicts along with the plot are as follows-

1. Man vs. man is seen in the competition between Carol and Brandi in their effort to get the gold medal. This competition to secure the better goal is a conflict of interest of the two persons involved.

2. Man vs. Self is seen in Miguel who is struggling with feeling guilty. This type of conflict deals with an individual and his inner emotions and feelings, a form of inner conflict within the persona and involves no other external identity.

3. Man vs. Nature is found in the farmers and the drought that had destroyed their crops. The farmers are in conflict with the terrible drought, a force of nature. Thus, it is a form of man and nature in conflict.

4. Man vs. Higher power is a form of conflict between an individual and some higher power, in this case God. God is the ever powerful entity over all, thus when Jonah disobeyed God, he gets corrected. This is a type of man vs. higher conflict.

5. Man vs. Society is shown when there is a conflict between an individual and the society he lives in. Thus, when Rev. Mundo protests against the sporting event that occurs on a Sunday, he is in conflict with the society. This conflict is based on the differences in interest.
