Conflict and Plot Structure in Robin Hood

Question 2 • 25-26 TX-Literary Genres

Which excerpt from Robin Hood shows how Robin’s reaction to conflict changes him?

Answer

“What is done is done; and the egg cracked cannot be cured.”

“my bow and eke mine arrows are as good as thine;”

[he] lay hidden in Sherwood Forest for one year, and in that time there gathered around him many others like himself, cast out

some had been despoiled by a great baron or a rich abbot or a powerful esquire–all, for one cause or another, had come to Sherwood

Explanation

Choice C shows Robin’s response to conflict changing his life: after he is cast out, he hides in Sherwood Forest, where others in similar situations gather around him. This suggests that being driven away leads him to form a group of outcasts. The other excerpts show a saying, a boast about archery, or why other people came to Sherwood, not how Robin changes.
