PLEASE HELP!!! What impact does the extended dog metaphor have on the tone of “Reunion”?

I'll post parts of the story that used the dogs as metaphors.

<span>"He chuckled as their muffled noises reminded him of whimpering puppies down at the animal shelter where he volunteered. Puppies always seemed to make noises as they played and whined for attention from the older dogs or volunteers. He liked working in the smaller dog area where all the older dogs looked out for the puppies, just like family, just like his family of older members looking out for the younger ones."

The metaphor of the dog gave me a clear picture of what their family is and how they act towards one another.

Their family is big in number and most of them are kids. They are a boisterous bunch and they enjoy each others company just like puppies. The older batch of cousins are like the big dogs that keep watch over the younger cousins like puppies. 

Their family is big, happy, warm, and clearly enjoys each others company.</span>

What type of conflict do the details in this passage most reverl?
NemiM [27]

The complete question is:

I didn't know what to say. I had the same hot and cold feeling that I had when I first saw Grandpa in the street. The medicine bag was the dirty leather pouch I had found around his neck. "I could never wear such a thing," I almost said aloud. I thought of having my friends see it in gym class or at the swimming pool and could imagine the smart things they would say. But I just swallowed hard and took a step toward the bed. I knew I would have to take it.

What type of conflict do the details in this passage reveal?

Answer:

- Character Vs. Self

Explanation:

As per the question, the kind of conflict displayed through the passage would be 'character vs. self' as it exhibits a disagreement between the character's own inner instincts and emotions. This is clearly reflected through the inner struggle that the character goes through as reflected by his self-doubts. The <u>descriptions like 'I didn't know what to say...hot and cold feeling...swallowed hard' substantiate the claim that the character goes through a dilemma about his own opposing desires('thought of having friends...imagining smart things they would say')</u>.

Romanticism was essentially a reaction against the eighteenth century's Neoclassical emphasis on reason, rules, and restraint.

This is True. The romantic period felt that the heart should be followed instead of reason and that rules and restraint destroy our potential.

<span>D. There is no single topic sentence.

This paragraph is not focused under one single topic sentence, it moves throughout the features of the earth and how they interact and change the face of the planet. In order to bring this paragraph together more clearly, a topic sentence would have to be added that covers all the information in the paragraph.</span>
