There were other boys too who picked on me, but Mitchell was the worst. I recall one time in particular when I was about nine or
so and I was reading beside a creek on my daddy's land, and Mitchell came up from behind me and just whopped me on the head. For no reason. Just whopped me on the head! Course I jumped up mad. "What ya do that for?" I cried. What type of conflict does Paul experience in this excerpt?
(A) character vs. nature
(B) character vs. character
(C) character vs. self
(D) character vs. society
The type of conflict Paul experiences in the excerpt is the following one:
(B) character vs. character.
Since there is the narration of a character's action which had a direct effect on another character (the whopping on the head by Mitchell, which caused Paul to feel angry), it is a conflict of character vs character.
