Sarah was torn. Should she stop being friends with Connie just because of a rumor? Sarah heard the rumor from another good frien

d, a person who was usually very kind. Sarah didn't think she could be friends with Connie if the rumor was true. Yet, Sarah felt certain that confronting Connie, whether the rumor was true or not, would lead to disasterous results. But she felt that she had no choice; Sarah would have to ask. Sarah suddenly realized that the teacher had called her name; the other students were staring. Ugh, I'm going to get detention again! She thought to herself. Sure enough, Ms. Peterson angrily handed her the slip of paper that Sarah's mom would surely be pleased to sign later that night. Fuming, Sarah was temporarily distracted from thoughts of Connie, but then the bell rang and ended her reprieve. Sarah walked out of the classroom and imagined seeing Connie walking toward her seconds before the real Connie walked out of third period math. Connie waved and walked towards Sarah, grininning.
Which statement describes the main conflict in the passage best?
It's an internal conflict because Sarah has to decide whether or not to confront her friend. It's an external conflict because Ms. Peterson has given Sarah a detention. It's an internal conflict because Sarah will probably argue with her mom later that night. It's an external conflict because the bell interrupted Sarah's angry and worried thoughts.

Answer:

B. Two contradictory things simultaneously

Explanation:

If a reporter receives an anonymous tip claiming that the sheriff is taking payouts from a local gang, what must the reporter as
Law Incorporation [45]

<u>The correct answer is A. What proof the tipster is able to provide.</u>

The reason why it's anonymous is probably because <em>the person providing the information doesn't feel comfortable providing their identity</em>. That's why we have so many tip lines that assure us we won't be asked for our names, information about where we live or even how we know what we know. All they care about is the information we provide and the accuracy of it.

Hence the correct answer can't be C or D. Just imagine what would happen to the tipster if they are quoted or exposed. They want the crime to stop but they don't want to be harmed for being the people talking about it.

In order to stop the crime or expose it, it is<u><em> necessary</em></u> for the reporter to have <em>concrete evidence</em> of it. Without proof, the reporter won't be able to check if the tip is true. His reputation is also undermined if what he publishes turns out to be fake, so proof is very important.

Answer B it's also incorrect because the <em>intention </em>of the tipster should be <em>irrelevant</em>. Also by stating why they want to talk, they'd be revealing who they are to the criminals (or at least give them an idea) and they wouldn't remain anonymous anymore.
