Question 1 • English 9 A

Which sentence best summarizes the central conflict in Amateratsu?

Answer

A

Amaterasu, the sun goddess, had a brother, Susanowo, the storm god, who fought with her.

B

Uzume, Amaterasu, Susanowo, and the other gods all had great influence over what happened on earth.

C

Susanowo caused so much trouble that Amaterasu retreated from the world, taking the sun with her.

D

The gods intervened so that Amaterasu brought back the sun, and Susanowo was punished.

Explanation

The central conflict is the problem that Susanowo’s disruptive behavior caused: Amaterasu withdrew into a cave, leaving the world without sunlight. Choice C captures that main problem. Choice D describes how the conflict is resolved, rather than the conflict itself.
