Read the excerpt from "Yearbook." She wouldn't characterize herself as shy; it's just that
she thought of herself as an individual, as opposed to
being dependent on others. It was safer and easier that
way, especially since her
best friend Clara had
unexpectedly moved to California last summer. Just
Fatima doing Fatima's thing-a club of one.
Which type of conflict is presented in this excerpt?
O character vs. nature
character vs. self
O character vs. character
O character vs. society

b). Character vs self.

Explanation:

The conflict that is displayed in the given excerpt taken from 'Yearbook' would be 'character vs self' as the character undergoes an inner struggle to socialize with people and communicate with them after her best friend has left her. The descriptions like 'thought of herself...being dependent on others' shows that there is a disagreement among her own thoughts as she is unable to call herself shy but at the same time she feels lonely and finds the past time easier when she was with her best friend which shows her dependency over others. Thus, there is conflict with her self and hence, option b is the correct answer.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
