6 0

Answer: I think he didn't do the right thing because well i  mean, George did not do the right thing at the end of the book because I believe Lennie still had a reason for living and that should not have been taken away from him. There were plenty of other solutions to Lennie's problem than killing him. I also think that George should not have given up on his and Lennie's dream, I think it was 100% possible, if George had allowed it to be.

Explanation:

I hope this helps. I really think he shot him in love though because he didn't want lennie to be tourched in a room full of special kids and George knew how much Lennie was a danger to people so he just shot him, but I still don't think it was right for George to shoot him..

Which character in this excerpt is in conflict with society, and why? A. Joe Summers is in conflict with society because he is j
lawyer [7]

Answer:

C. Mrs. Adams is in conflict with society because she says some villages have stopped holding lotteries.

Explanation:

The given excerpt from Shirley Jackson's short story "The Lottery" shows the scene where all of the villagers were together to cast lots about who was to be chosen the <em>"winner"</em> of that year's lottery. The practice of this barbaric stoning to death of the <em>"winner"</em> seems like an annual ritual to them though they hardly ever remember why or how it came up to be.

In the excerpt, the conflict between a person and society is seen when someone seems to criticize what is happening in the society or talks against it. And when Mrs. Adams remarked that some villagers had stopped holding the lotteries, she is in direct conflict against the practice/society. This shows that she may have also deemed it unnecessary, but given the patriarchal society she's living in, her voice or opinion hardly matters to anyone. This is also quite evident when Old Mister Warner immediately retorted "<em>Pack of young fools</em>." The conflict with society collides with the need to preserve the practice, thus leading to Mrs. Adams' comment as something bad or working against the very nature of the traditional lottery.

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Deciding to study is an internal conflict because it is an inner struggle also known as man vs self. Another example of an internal conflict would be an emotional problem like anxiety or difficult decision making.
