Question 30 • English 9 CR SUSD (EX)

Read the passage from “Initiation.” The door behind her opened and a ray of light sliced across the soft gloom of the basement room. "Hey Millicent, come on out now. This is it." There were some of the girls outside. "I'm coming," she said, getting up and moving out of the soft darkness into the glare of light, thinking: This is it, all right. The worst part, the hardest part, the part of initiation that I figured out myself. The passage provides evidence that Millicent has just overcome what kind of conflict?

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

Explanation

Millicent has been struggling with whether to go along with the initiation or act according to her own beliefs. She leaves the basement and faces the group, thinking that this was the hardest part—the decision she figured out herself. That shows an internal struggle, or character vs. self, rather than a conflict with nature or a specific person.
