Question 8 of 10 Which sentence best states the conflict revealed in this passage from Helen
Keller's The Story of my life?
Have you ever been at sea in a dense fog, when it seemed
as if a tangible white darkness shut you in, and the great
ship, tense and anxious, groped her way toward the shore
with plummet and sounding line, and you waited with
beating heart for something to happen? I was like that ship
before my education began, only I was without compass or
sounding line, and had no way of knowing how near the
harbour was, "Light give me light was the wordless cry of
my soul, and the light of love shone on me in that very
hour
O A Helen is scared that she will never be able to communicate with
her family again
0. Helen is sad that her teacher is leaving and will be unable to
communicate with her
O 0 Helen is frustrated by the challenges associated with learning to
communicate
O D. Helen is angry that her mother and teacher aren't helping her to
communicate

the patriots are

1. this would be first person. it would be like "i walked home from school today" they are the narrator of the story and is a character as well.

2. first person because they used the word "i" in the quote.

3. i'm really not sure about this one i'm really sorry i never read it so i wouldn't know how to answer it. 

4. it would be character vs. society because everyone he meets there is always a conflict of some sort because he's stuck in his daydream.

5. it would be sadness at the loss of youth because the title itself tells us it's about age so it couldn't be about regret. and the tone just sounds sad, not angry. 

i hope this !

first of all the mood needs to be defined: it is obviously a mood of deceitful relief and serenity. why? because the cape horn is one of the most violent maritime regions of earth and although it has been left behind, it is a personification of ahab’s delirium and the fact that the end of the passage speaks about it about being “hidden” but “raving” immediately conveys the feeling the calm is not permanent but fleeting.

furthermore, the oxymoron “mild stun'sails” is the first instance of such feeling as the adjective “mild” is associated with “stunned” underscoring the fleeting nature of this “tranquil” moment. and the contrasts keep piling up, with the opposition between “dark den” and “blessed light and air” to end with the final conclusion that leaves the reader with the uneasy knowledge that this is just a reprieve.
