enzo and luca glared at each other from across the cafeteria, knowing that they needed to talk about the game.

Explanation:

External conflict involves a character struggling against an outside force (another person, institution, technology, etc.), not internal thoughts/fears.

1. The first option involves a conflict with a hacked account (external force: the hacker/security breach).
2. The second option involves a conflict related to legislative processes (external force: political system/law outcome).
3. The fifth option involves a conflict between two people (Enzo and Luca, external interpersonal force).

The third option is internal (fears) and the fourth is an internal decision, so they are internal conflicts.

Answer:

• When my email password was denied for the third time, I realized that my account must have been hacked.
• Realizing that the law was not going to be vetoed, the congresswoman retired to her office to start working.
• Enzo and Luca glared at each other from across the cafeteria, knowing that they needed to talk about the game.
