Answer:
C). to introduce the main character.
Explanation:
As per the question, the given excerpt as the section of the story aims to 'introduce a main character' i.e. 'Father Wolf.' The details about the routine('seven o'clock...woke up'), behavior('scratched himself...spread...paws' etc.), and his daily task('time to hunt again') display that the author is introducing him to the readers by offering details regarding him.
The descriptions display that there is no conflict about which the author would create uncertainty or suspense and since there is no tension, breaking it is out of the context. Neither does the author talk about a problem whose solution he seems to be providing. Thus, the only logical option is <u>option C</u> which is the correct answer.
There are several types of conflicts in literature:
You have:
1. Man versus Self
2. Man versus another character
3. Man versus nature (ex. To build a Fire by Jack London)
4. Man versus Society (ex: Atlas Shrugged)
In this case I would think that the conflict is found in D: Perseus's effort to escape from the Gorgons after he kills Medusa.
The reason why I feel that D is the best option is because There is a cause and effect of the conflict. Pereus caused a death and now that brings conflict into the picture especially since it says he has to put effort into escaping the other characters (Gorgons).
Good luck and I hope this helped.
I would have to say D. CITATIONS ALLOWS READERS TO INVESTIGATE ALLEGATIONS OF PLAGIARISM. Plagiarism can be a big deal and you can get into a lot of trouble for it.
