Read the passage from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. It is one thing to mortify curiosity, another to conquer it; and it may be doubted if, from that day forth, Utterson desired the society of his surviving friend with the same eagerness. He thought of him kindly; but his thoughts were disquieted and fearful. He went to call indeed; but he was perhaps relieved to be denied admittance; perhaps, in his heart, he preferred to speak with Poole upon the doorstep and surrounded by the air and sounds of the open city, rather than to be admitted into that house of voluntary bondage, and to sit and speak with its inscrutable recluse. What internal conflict does the passage describe?

Your question is incomplete because you have not provided the answer options, which are:

Poole is conflicted about barring Utterson from the house.

Utterson is conflicted about his attitude toward Jekyll.

Jekyll is conflicted about isolating himself from society.

Utterson is conflicted about bothering Poole repeatedly.

Utterson is conflicted about his attitude toward Jekyll.

Explanation:

In Robert Louis Stevenson's "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," Utterson has ambiguous feelings regarding his friend Jekyll. On the one hand, he thinks sympathetically and thoughfully of Jekyll. On the other hand, after seeing the harmful change Jekyll has caused in his friend Lanyon, Utterson cannot help but feel uneasy and hesistant about him. In fact, deep in his heart he prefers not to be allowed to see Jekyll at his house.

The answer is B) Utterson is conflicted about his attitude toward Jekyll

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
