"you're not fit to talk about him. yeah, i understand that everything's different now. we used to be a free country. now we're not." [7] "marcus, do you know what 'zero-tolerance' means? " [8] i backed down. he could expel me for "threatening behavior." it was supposed to be used against kids who tried to intimidate their teachers. but of course he wouldn't have any compunction about using it on me. [9] "yes," i said. "i know what it means." [10] "i think you owe me an apology," he said. [11] i looked at him. he was barely suppressing his sadistic smile. a part of me wanted to grovel. it wanted to beg for his forgiveness for all my shame. i tamped that part down and decided that i would rather get kicked out than apologize. select the paragraph that best develops the man vs. society conflict marcus faces. paragraph 4 paragraph 5 paragraph 6 paragraph 7
