Conflict in White Fang

Question 5 • Common Core ELA 7 A-IC

Read this excerpt from White Fang by Jack London.Such was the lesson that was quickly borne in upon him. It came hard, going as it did, counter to much that was strong and dominant in his own nature; and, while he disliked it in the learning of it, unknown to himself he was learning to like it.This is an example of which type of conflict?

Answer
A
character vs. society
B
character vs. character
C
character vs. nature
D
character vs. self

Explanation

The excerpt describes a struggle within the character: the lesson goes against what is strong and dominant in his own nature, even as he gradually learns to like it. Because the conflict is between his feelings or instincts and what he is learning, it is character vs. self. This is not a conflict with another character, society, or the natural environment.
