What is the conflict in the story excerpt above? A. A man struggles against waking up and tries to fall back sleep. B. A man is

terrified by a servant who comes in during the night. C. A man oversleeps and is very late getting himself to work. D. A man cannot wake himself up from a terrifying nightmare.
A man awakened in a third-story bedroom in a lodging-house in a poor street in London, and as his consciousness returned to him, its slow and reluctant movings confronted the second point of view—marked by enormous differences. He had not slept two consecutive hours through the night, and when he had slept he had been tormented by dreary dreams, which were more full of misery because of their elusive vagueness, which kept his tortured brain on a wearying strain of effort to reach some definite understanding of them. Yet when he awakened, the consciousness of being again alive was an awful thing. If the dreams could have faded into blankness and all have passed with the passing of the night, how he could have thanked whatever gods there be! Only not to awake—only not to awake! But he had awakened.
The clock struck nine as he did, so consequently, he knew the hour. The lodging-house servant had aroused him by coming to light the fire. She had set her candle on the hearth and done her work as stealthily as possible, but he had been disturbed, though he had made a desperate effort to struggle back into sleep. That was no use—no use. He was awake and he was in the midst of it all again. Without the sense of luxurious comfort, he opened his eyes and turned upon his back, throwing out his arms flatly, so that he lay as in the form of a cross, in heavy weariness and anguish. For months he had awakened each morning after such a night and had so lain like a crucified thing.

A; it mentions in the second sentence that he hadn't slept two consecutive hours due to dreams. He kept trying to get back to sleep near the end of the story, so that would be the main conflict.

What is the theme of the legend of Robin Hood
enot [183]

Answer:Justice Through Transgression. Perhaps the central theme of the tales of Robin Hood is social and economic justice. Such justice often requires breaking the law, a fact encapsulated by the Merry Men's proclaimed mission to steal from the rich and give to the poor.

Write a letter to travel agency for booking a tourist twor and guide for sight seeing​
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Dear sir or madam,

I am going on holiday to New York in June, and I would like to book some services from this travel agency.

I have seen on your web page that you have different tourist tour options. I am interested in booking the evening New York City tour and guide for sightseeing for June 3nd if possible. It would be for two persons, my husband and me. Also, I would like to know the tour's length and if specific clothes, such as comfortable shoes, are recommended.

I am looking forward to hearing from you and the availability of the tour.

Yours faithfully.

Lindsay Hughs.

Explanation:

When we write a letter, the first thing that we have to do is address the person to who we are writing. As we do not know their name, we write sir or madam.

In the first paragraph, we have to introduce the reason why we are writing. We tell the reader that we are going on holiday and are interested in the travel agency services.

In the body of the letter, we describe in detail what we want. That is to say, the date that we want to book the tour, the number of people, and any information that we would like to know.

In the last paragraph, we use a closing sentence saying that we are waiting for their answer, and lastly, we say our goodbyes.
