A story dealing with a character fighting to stay alive while lost at sea would be an example of which type of conflict?

Answers

Answer:

Character/man vs. nature.

Explanation:

In a story, conflict is the confrontational, opposing forces that occur to the characters. This conflict may result as a form of different opinions or even may pit one against another or anything that obstructs a character from getting to a certain designated destination.

According to the question, the character in the story is fighting for his life while lost at sea. In this case, the conflict is between the man/ character and his need to survive, which is made difficult by his condition of being lost at sea. So, he has to overcome his hurdles at sea and fight nature if he is to survive. Thus, we can deduce that the conflict is between the character/ man and sea/ nature.

Read the following group discussion about Lord of the Flies by William Golding, in which a group of children are stranded on a desert island.MARIA:So, in his article Kinski says that the message in Lord of the Flies is that civilization is precious and can easily slip away.EDGAR:I think that Golding's message is that civilization itself is kind of a myth, given that the story seems to take place in the middle of a war of some kind; the adults fighting the war aren't any better than the children killing each on the island. In other words, civilization can't "slip away" if it was never there to begin with. VICTOR:Kinski does tend to make a big distinction between "civilized" people and "uncivilized" people, like it's something that can be turned on and off like a light switch. That explains his attitude. RIKU:What I got out of Lord of the Flies is that civilization is a house of cards, built slowly over time, that can come crashing down at a moment's notice. Kinski didn't really seem to contradict that idea. MARIA:It sounds like you two have pretty different ideas about what Kinski was saying. We should look back at the article and find support for what each of us thinks about his opinion. VICTOR:Fine by me. I remember exactly where to look.Which student is most clearly determining new research goals?

Which two sentences in this excerpt from John F. Kennedy's inaugural address demonstrate the use of antithesis as a rhetorical device?
We observe today not a victory of party but a celebration of freedom-symbolizing an end as well as a beginning-signifying renewal as well as
change. For I have sworn before you and Almighty God the same solemn oath our forbears prescribed nearly a century and three-quarters ago.
The world is very different now. For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life.
And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe-the belief that the rights of man come not
from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God.
We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that
the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans-born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud
of our ancient heritage-and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been
committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.
