It happened that a Dog had got a 20 piece of meat and was carrying it home in his mouth to eat it in peace . Now on his way home
he had to cross a plank lying across a running brook. As he crossed, he looked down and saw his own shadow reflected in the water beneath . Thinking it was another dog with another piece of meat, he made up his mind to have that also. So he made a snap at the shadow in the water, but as he opened his mouth the piece of meat fell out, dropped into the water and was never seen more.don’t use for points
A "conflict" is essential in order for a narrative story to progress. There are many different kinds of conflicts and these are the following:
<em>1. Man. vs. Man</em>
<em>2. Man vs. Nature</em>
<em>3. Man vs. Self</em>
<em>4. Man vs. Machine</em>
<em>5. Man vs. Society</em>
<em>6. Man vs. Fate</em>
The story above about the dog is an example of <em>"Man vs. Himself" </em>conflict. The conflict is between the dog and<em> his own reflection</em> created in the water, whom he thinks is<em> "another dog."</em> So it means that he is in opposition of himself. <u>This shows a conflict between man and his own greediness/inner struggle.</u>
The correct option is “an appeal of emotions”. The word “pathos” is used to describe somebody or something that evokes feelings of sadness or compassion. It is commonly used in a literary work as a communication technique that arouses the audience’s emotions, especially pity.
Even though the rest of the options also describe communication techniques in narrative art, the term “pathos” specifically refers to emotions.
