This question is about "The Monkey’s Paw"

Answer:

To emphasize the mystical power of the rabbit's paw, as there are many legends about animals and mysticism in India.

Explanation:

India is a land with many legends and many stories involving mysticism and animals. This was built mainly due to the cultural and religious characteristics of India that ended up creating a stereotype about the "magical" objects that are created there. Thus, when the author places the Whites visitor as a military man who was in India and brought with him a magical object, the author imposes credibility on that object and on the visitor's words.

What kind of conflict drives the plot in the story, "The Fisherman and his Wife"?
lord [1]

The answer would be Person Vs Person because the fishermans wife just wanted more and more from him not thinking about him at all just herself...and there was no other charater in the story but the fish, but the fish was giving the man gifts so he wouldn't be the problem so the wife was the conflict in the story that's why it would be Husband Vs Wife.

I hoped this helped!

Have a great day/night! :)
