Question

which excerpt from initiation is the best example of an internal conflict?

• millicent had waited a long time for acceptance, longer than most
• rebellion flooded through her

i said get up. are you deaf?

• thinking, this is beginning to sound serious. worse than a loyalty test, this grilling over the coins. whats it supposed to prove anyway?
• i mean, some of them thought tracy was just a bit too different. maybe you could suggest a few things to her

Explanation:

To determine internal conflict, we look for a character's internal struggle (thoughts/doubts). The third option shows a character thinking about the situation ("this is beginning to sound serious... What's it supposed to prove anyway?") – internal conflict. Other options: first is about waiting for acceptance (no internal struggle), second is rebellion (emotion but not internal conflict of thoughts), fourth is a suggestion (external dialogue).

Answer:

The third option: "Thinking, this is beginning to sound serious. Worse than a loyalty test, this grilling over the coins. What's it supposed to prove anyway?"
