Answer:

In “Rules of the Game,” an excerpt from her 1989 novel The Joy Luck Club, Amy Tan examines an early part in the development of a Chinese-American girl named Waverly Jong and her relationship with her Chinese immigrant mother. Tan presents events in chronological order; nonetheless, she varies the pacing of the action in order to create tension and add meaning to the story.

"Rules of the Game" opens with exposition; six-year-old Waverly is on a typical shopping trip with her mother. Tan describes Waverly’s family, home, and surrounding environment. These rich and quickly-presented details are important for understanding Waverly’s relationship with her mother and her life as an American-born Chinese girl growing up in San Francisco Chinatown.

Tan then slows down the narrative to focus on the object that changed Waverly’s life: her brother’s chess set. The author describes exactly how the chess set came into Waverly’s life: it was a Christmas charity gift from their church. She...

HELP ME PLS! IM NOT SURE ABOUT THIS EXPLAIN UR ANSWER AND LOOK AT BOTH PIC PLS WILL MARK BRAINLIEST THX Question is in the 1rst
Westkost [7]

The correct answers are Excerpt 1: Internal conflict; Excerpt 2: External conflict; Excerpt 3: External conflict; Excerpt 4: Internal

Explanation:

In literature, conflict is classified as external if characters fight against elements such as society, nature, and other characters because the conflict occurs is not within the character. On the opposite, in the internal conflict, the conflict emerges within the character and often implies the character struggling against his/her fears, emotions, beliefs, etc.

According to this, excerpts 1 and 4 should be classified as part of internal conflict because in both the characters struggle against their own feelings, in the first case there is a struggle between fear and curiosity, and in the second there is a struggle between fear and admiration. On the other hand, excerpts 2 and 3 show external conflict because in the second excerpt the character struggles against a group of aliens (other characters) and in the third excerpt the character struggles against society.
