2. Why is CONFLICT important?
Without conflict, there is no story: no TV
shows, movies, radio dramas, comics,
novels… and life would be boring.
The storyline happens due to the conflict.
Conflict is introduced in the rising action.
Change happens at the turning point.
Conflict is faced head-on during the climax.
Conflict begins to work itself out during the
falling action.
Conflict is resolved during the resolution.
This homework is worth 10 quizzes. Each quiz
is numbered.
4. MAN vs. SELF
The character(s) struggle happens in their own
mind(s).
This may be a choice between right and wrong, or
related overcoming emotions or mixed feelings.

Connect the new stuff you learned to

world.

How can you use what you have learned
in some situations in your own life?
I can use them by avoiding these

we must continue to live.
God is bigger than our problems.
