Question

Read the excerpt from "American History."

"You are going out today?" The way she said "today"
sounded as if a storm warning had been issued. It was
said in utter disbelief. Before I could answer, she came
toward me and held my elbows as I clutched my
books.
"Hija, the president has been killed. We must show
respect. He was a great man. Come to church with me
tonight."
Which element of the setting creates conflict in this
excerpt?
O location
O environment
O technology
O culture

Answer 1

Answer: Culture

Explanation: I say this because of the tone with which she asked, "Are you going out today?" and her "today" sounded as if she couldn't believe it. Furthermore, when she said, "Hija, the president has been killed. We must show respect. He was a great man. Come to church with me tonight." I believe she felt that going out to places other than church was disrespectful, and this type of conflict occurs when someone has a cultural belief.

HOPE THIS HELPS.
