Answer:
The conflict that occurs in the passage is:
<u>an external conflict between the mother, who wants to show off her famous daughter, and the daughter, who feels used.</u>
Explanation:
"Rules of the Game" is a short story by Amy Tan. The main character is Waverly Jong, a young girl who becomes an excellent chess player. Waverly is American, but her parents are Chinese immigrants. Her mother, in her broken English, teaches Waverly that the strongest wind cannot be seen, that patience and silence are powerful in defeating one's opponent.
Waverly is extremely intelligent and becomes a sort of child genius when it comes to chess. As a result, she is treated differently at home, being freed from her chores, excused from the table, and having the bedroom for herself. Still, her mother's actions bother her. Her hints at the way Waverly plays are nonsensical, and she feels proud as if she had taught her daughter how to play. Waverly feels used when she goes out shopping with her mother. She is introduced to everyone who will hear "This is my daughter Wave-ly". Her mother wants everyone to know she has a talented daughter.
<u>The conflict here is external, meaning it happens between the two characters, not within them. Waverly shows her emotions, but is misunderstood. Her mother feels offended, thinking her daughter is ashamed of being related to her. They are incapable of understanding each other, of communicating their feelings effectively. Waverly realizes her mother is the strongest adversary she will ever have, but she is smart enough to remember the lessons. At the end of the story, she is carefully planning her next move in life.</u>

To
The Editor,
Dawn news
Subject: Request for immediate repair of deplorable roads.Respected Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed daily newspaper, I wish to highlight the deplorable condition of the main road in liberty market.
The road is full of pot holes since it was never repaired for several years. During the Monsoon season the road gets flooded like a river. During Winter it gets dry and dusty. We have no other option but to breathe the dusty air which causes respiratory diseases. There is also grave danger of road accidents which may cause lost of precious life.
The residents are suffering untold hardships due to the bad and dangerous condition of the road.
Therefore, I request the Municipal Corporation and the higher authorities to survey the road of liberty market and repair the roads at the earliest.
Yours sincerely,
X.Y.Z

Answer:
I think it would be "Skunks’ spray is a powerful defense that is difficult to avoid, but skunks do warn before spraying."
Explanation:
Because the other sentences are either talking about the things that get mentioned in the paragraph or only a part of the paragraph. But, the "Skunks' spray is a powerful defense that is difficult to avoid, but skunks do warn before spraying", sums up the whole paragraph. :)
