In Chapter 15 of To Kill a Mockingbird, Scout, Jem, and Dill venture downtown at night and find Atticus sitting in front of the jail. Unaware of their presence, Atticus is sitting in a chair and reading a newspaper. As the children begin to leave, a line of cars approaches and stops in front of the jail. Hiding near the hardware store, Scout, Jem, and Dill watch as the men exit the cars and approach Atticus. One of the men says, "He in there, Mr. Finch?" Atticus confirms that Tom Robinson is indeed inside but cautions them, "He's asleep. Don't wake him up." What follows is what Scout refers to as a "sickeningly comic aspect of an unfunny situation."
The men are there to participate in a violent and uncivilized act. However, while their goal is to lynch Tom, they are respectful of Atticus and do as he says by whispering when they speak. It is ironic that they plan to hurt Tom and may even hurt Atticus in the process; they speak to him respectfully and whisper out of obedience to him. They even refer to Atticus as "Mr. Finch." Though there is nothing funny about the events, Scout refers to the situation as "sickeningly comic." This is because the men are managing to be respectful while at the same time planning to do bodily harm.

I hope that helped :)

A story dealing with a character fighting to stay alive while lost at sea would be an example of which type of conflict?
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Character/man vs. nature.

Explanation:

In a story, conflict is the confrontational, opposing forces that occur to the characters. This conflict may result as a form of different opinions or even may pit one against another or anything that obstructs a character from getting to a certain designated destination.

According to the question, the character in the story is fighting for his life while lost at sea. In this case, the conflict is between the man/ character and his need to survive, which is made difficult by his condition of being lost at sea. So, he has to overcome his hurdles at sea and fight nature if he is to survive. Thus, we can deduce that the <u>conflict is between the character/ man and sea/ nature. </u>
