Answer:

During December a crate arrives and once pried loose reveals a doll glued to a stand. There’s a butterfly in her tight black hair. The dress is sashed red to the waist, the limbs won’t move, and the eyes won’t close. Who wants a doll that can’t be cuddled? Still, the child is forced to write her mother and, until I love and miss you, every word is what she’s been warned against, a lie.

The author's feelings about the birds She pities them and sees them as animals stumbling to survive.

Emotions in birds Birds may regard for others (have empathy) and even comfort them, may have a sense of justice, may show deep love for their partner and grieve for their loss.

<h3>Do you think birds have feelings?</h3>

Birds do not communicate emotions directly and though behavior clues can be vague, those behaviors can demonstrate a wide range of feelings to observant birders.

<h3>How can you tell a bird's emotions?</h3>

The pupils of his eyes might swiftly rotate between widening and narrowing. He might fast flash the plumage of his tail outward, although this conduct also can denote enthusiasm rather than anger. Growling and hiss are also typical signs of birds expressing their undesirable moods.

babunello [35]

1. The opposing forces are Rev. Buckminster and his son Turner Buckminster.

2. It is a man vs man/ individual vs. individual/ person vs person conflict.

3. The conflict is related to the setting for the story happens during the racist prejudice era.

<h3>How, explain your answer briefly?</h3>

The conflict in a narrative story is the contrast in the forces or elements in play. These opposing forces try to suppress each other, further forwarding the plot.

The conflict in the passage from the story "Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy" by Gary D. Schmidt is between Turner Buckminster and his father Rev, Buckminster. The Rev. does not like his son hanging around with people such as Lizzie, who are of a colored section. The setting of the story being during the racism, Turner had been prevented by his father to stay away from the colored people. But rather than doing what he's told, he began to hang around more and more with Lizzie. Thus, the opposing forces of the conflict are the father and son.

The type of conflict is man vs. man or individual/ person vs. individual/person. This type of conflict happens when a man or an individual have conflicting interests from another individual.

The conflict in this scene is related to the setting for the interests of the two individuals are different from each other. Since the theme of racial discrimination is prevalent in the story, the conflict in the two individuals' beliefs also led to the further advancement of the story.

Thus, his could be the answer.
