Question

b. to demonstrate that all children eventually rebel against their families.
c. to prove that minli doesnt understand the difference between right and wrong.
d. to reveal the complexity of minlis emotions as she makes a difficult decision.

Explanation:

Internal conflict in literature often shows a character's complex emotions during decision - making. Option A is too negative as internal conflict isn't about being dishonest. Option B is an over - generalization as not all children rebel. Option C is incorrect as internal conflict doesn't imply not knowing right from wrong. Option D correctly aligns with the purpose of showing emotional complexity during a difficult decision.

D. To reveal the complexity of Minli's emotions as she makes a difficult decision.
