This unit focuses on different types of conflicts in literary texts. In stories, characters can face internal conflict within themselves, or they can face external conflict with other people, nature, or society. Think of a conflict in a story that you’ve read recently, either in class or on your own. What type of conflict—internal conflict or external conflict—did the protagonist (main character) face? What did the character learn from the conflict? Was the character able to overcome the conflict? Discuss whether you think the conflict in the story is a situation that could happen in real life and if the solution would have worked in the real world

Read the following excerpt from "dark tower" by claude mckay before you choose your answer. "we shall not always plant while others reap the golden increment of bursting fruit, nor always countenance, abject and mute, that lesser men should hold their brothers cheap; not everlastingly while others sleep shall we beguile their limbs with mellow flute, not always bend to some more subtle brute. we were not made eternally to weep. the night, whose sable breast relieves the stark, white stars, is no less lovely being dark; and there are buds that cannot bloom at all in light, but crumple, piteous, and fall. so in the dark we hid the heart that bleeds, and wait, and tend our agonizing needs." in context, the expression "the night, whose sable breast relieves the stark,/ white stars, is no less lovely being dark; " is best interpreted as a. the light of the stars overpowers the black of night b. the black of night overpowers the light of the stars c. black and white contribute equally to the beauty of the night sky d. black and white continuously compete for prominence in the night sky
