Answer: Students had a choice between two writing prompts for this contest on immigration policies at the border and in the “Constitution-free zone,” a 100-mile perimeter from land and sea borders where U.S. Border Patrol can search any vehicle, bus, or vessel without a warrant. They could state their positions on the impact of immigration policies on our country’s security and how we determine who is welcome to live here. Or they could write about a time when someone made an unfair assumption about them, just as Border Patrol agents have made warrantless searches of Greyhound passengers based simply on race and clothing.

The Sporting event sounds fantastic! Maybe this is a chance for me to show off my skills and techniques. A week has passed and there are only a few days left until the major event. I was so excited yet my heart started pounding as soon as someone mentioned that I signed up for it. My family and friends were all counting on me to win this competition so the pressure was on. Soon everyone in my school began to acknowledge and take interest in asking me what sport I liked. I felt so nervous but I tried to think positively to help the situation. A mixture of thoughts were running through my head, things like, "I can't do this." "Everyone will be proud of you." and "I'm useless." At that moment upon those words my mind went blank.

Answer:
The major conflict is related to Pi's fight for survival after he is stranded at sea when the ship that he and his family are travelling to Canada on sinks. To resolve this conflict, he has to face both internal and external challenges. The biggest conflict Pi faces are against the natural environment. Pi also faces terrifying weather conditions that make life at sea unpredictable. Pi describes a storm that ''came on slowly one afternoon. The clouds looked as if they were stumbling along before the wind, frightened. The sea took its cue. It started rising and falling in a manner that made my heart sink.'' The storm destroys the raft and many of the supplies on the lifeboat. He also faces many other challenges, such as being forced to battle the elements, animals, and a carnivorous island while stranded at sea. This links directly to the theme, which is about struggling to survive through difficult odds. The shipwrecked inhabitants of the little lifeboat don’t simply give up: they actively fight against it. Pi abandons his lifelong vegetarianism and eats fish to sustain himself. Orange Juice, the peaceful orangutan, fights ferociously against the hyena. Even the severely wounded zebra battles to stay alive; his slow, painful struggle clearly shows the sheer strength of his life force. As Martel makes clear in his novel, living creatures will often do unexpected, and sometimes heroic things to survive. However, they will also do barbaric things if pressed. The hyena’s treachery and the blind Frenchman’s turn toward cannibalism show just how far creatures will go when faced with the possibility of extinction.
