Question

read the excerpt from \justin lebo.\
on the way home, justin was silent. his mother assumed he was lost in a feeling of satisfaction. but he was thinking about what would happen once those bikes got wheeled inside and everyone saw them. how would all those kids decide who got the bikes? two bikes could cause more trouble than they would solve.
what conflict is introduced in this excerpt?
○ the residents of the kilbarchan home for boys may not know how to ride the bicycles justin brought
○ there are not enough staff members at the kilbarchan home for boys to oversee the distribution of the bicycles.
○ the residents of the kilbarchan home for boys may not like the bicycles that justin restored.
○ there are not enough bicycles for the residents of the kilbarchan home for boys.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The excerpt shows Justin's mother thinking about how two bikes would lead to kids deciding who gets them, implying a conflict about the number of bikes. The relevant part is "How would all those kids decide who got the bikes? Two bikes could cause more trouble than they would solve." This matches the option about not enough bikes for the residents (since two bikes for multiple kids means insufficient). Other options: no info on riding ability, staff oversight, or disliking the bikes.

Answer:

There are not enough bicycles for the residents of the Kilbarchan Home for Boys.
