Question 3 • TX-English I B-CR

Which is an example of external conflict in Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy?

Answer
T
Turner likes the beach better than the town.
L
Lizzie is not sure she will like the boy on the beach.
T
Turner does not like how his father treats him.
T
Turner likes Malaga Island but cannot say so.

Explanation

An external conflict is a struggle between a character and another person or an outside force. Turner’s disagreement with his father over how his father treats him is a conflict between people, so “Turner does not like how his father treats him” is the example. Being unsure or unable to express a feeling describes an internal conflict instead.
