Read the excerpt from act 3, scene 2, of julius caesar.

[brutus.] who is here so
vile that will not love his country? if any, speak,
for him have i offended. i pause for a reply.

all. none, brutus, none.

brutus. then none have i offended. i have done
no more to
caesar than you shall do to brutus. the question of
his death is enrolled in the capitol: his glory not
extenuated, wherein he was worthy, nor his offences
enforced, for which he suffered death.

[enter antony and others, with caesar’s body]

here comes his body, mourned by mark antony, who,
though he had no hand in his death, shall receive
the benefit of his dying: a place in the
commonwealth—as which of you shall not? with this
i depart: that, as i slew my best lover for the
good of rome, i have the same dagger for myself,
when it shall my country to need my death.

what is the best summary of this monologue?

brutus explains that he has not offended anyone and that he has not done anything to caesar that the people will not do to him someday.
brutus says that he has not offended anyone and that he killed caesar for the good of rome, just as the people may kill him someday. as caesar’s body is delivered, brutus also acknowledges that antony is not guilty, but will benefit from caesar’s death, just as everyone will.
brutus tries to justify caesar’s death by suggesting that the people should kill him someday if it is for the good of rome.
brutus asks if he has offended anyone, and they say no. he then asserts that he has not done anything to caesar that the people would not do to him, and that caesar’s triumphs have not been downplayed, nor have his crimes been exaggerated. as antony enters with caesar’s body, brutus says that antony had no part in killing caesar, but will benefit from his death, just as all the people will. finally, he says that he killed his best friend for the good of rome, and he expects the people to do the same to him if rome will benefit.

The following is the best summary of this passage: "Brutus asks if he has offended anyone, and they say no. He then asserts that he has not done anything to Caesar that the people would not do to him, and that Caesar’s triumphs have not been downplayed, nor have his crimes been exaggerated. As Antony enters with Caesar’s body, Brutus says that Antony had no part in killing Caesar, but will benefit from his death, just as all the people will. Finally, he says that he killed his best friend for the good of Rome, and he expects the people to do the same to him if Rome will benefit."

What makes it a good summary is that it brings out the main ideas of the text and restates them shortly and cleary:

  the conflict is the challenge the main character need to solve to achieve their goals, is the major literary element because creates challenges in the story by addin uncertainty to if the goal would be achieved. in the story could be more than a single conflict, in fact, most of the stories have a diversity of them. the resolution creates a closure that may or may not be the end of the story.

  the basic types of conflict have been classified as "person againsta nature", "person against person" and "persona against self". nevertheless the basic types, some authors think that it could be more than only three types, for instance:

  i´m gonna give you a little summary about the three basic types that i think are the one importants for the question

  the confict involves stories where characters are against each other, is an external conflict, as in a gun fight or a robbery or it could be more subtle between the desires of the characters as in a love story. this type of conflict is very common in traditional literature, fairy tales and myths.

  is an external conflict between the character and an animal or a force of nature, like a tornado,a storm or even a rain. a great example of this is ernest hemingway´s "the old man and the sea"   in which the main character struggle with a marlin when he was fishing.

  in this case the conflict is internal, the character must overcome her or his own nature or make a choice between two paths.

  i hope the answer is correct and you. regards

to leave the reader thinking and wandering on their own. without a resolution we are clueless to what happens next, and why it does. it may even cause suspension with the reader.
