Question

select all the correct answers.
which two scenarios are examples of internal conflict?

• a woman encountering a bear as she hikes a trail moving toward her campsite
• a man trying to decide whether he should vote for his friend in a local election
• a woman unable to contact her family because her cell phone stops working during a snowstorm
• a woman considering whether to report a rude colleague to her boss or confront the person herself

Explanation:

Internal conflict is a psychological struggle within a person's mind, involving difficult choices or moral dilemmas. Let's analyze each option:

1. "A woman observing a bus as she sees a bus moving toward her carpool" – This is an external situation (observing a bus), not an internal conflict.
2. "A man trying to decide whether he should vote for his friend or a more suitable candidate" – This involves a decision-making process within his mind (choosing between friend and suitable candidate), so it's internal conflict.
3. "A woman unable to contact her family because her cell phone stops working during a snowstorm" – This is an external obstacle (phone not working), not an internal conflict.
4. "A woman considering whether to report a rude colleague to her boss or confront the person herself" – This involves a decision-making process within her mind (choosing between reporting or confronting), so it's internal conflict.

Answer:

B. A man trying to decide whether he should vote for his friend or a more suitable candidate
D. A woman considering whether to report a rude colleague to her boss or confront the person herself
