I have not read the excerpt myself, but I can give you some tips on detecting the correct conflict. To detect whether conflict is internal or external, consider the way the story is told. If the conflict is interior, it will take place within the mind of a character. If the conflict is external, it will take place physically or verbally between two characters or between a character and some exterior force, such as nature. To figure out who the conflict is taking place between, consider whether the character in question is battling their own mind, feelings, or actions; this would indicate that they are in conflict with themselves. If the subject of their conflict is another character, that would indicate that they are not in conflict with themselves. Hope this helps.

The first and second answer choice are just saying he’s skilled but not necessarily that it’s powerful and then the last answer choice isn’t saying anything about the music just that he was singing.
The other one I’m not as sure of but I believe it would be showing the strength of his love for his wife, it could be the second one but I would say it wasn’t. The last answer choice is to literal and it can’t be comparing his life to a life without his wife’s love because it isn’t a simile or a metaphor which are for comparisons.
