Conflict is one of the most important aspects of a story. The conflict usually is an obstacle to the main character's goal. It usually brings about some type of change in the main character. The types of conflict that are evident in Night are character vs. nature, character vs. character, character vs. himself, and character vs. society. Examples of Conflict:

1. Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz has a conflict with nature because the tornado takes her away from her home.

2. The conflict between Cinderella and her wicked step-mother is an example of character vs. character.

3. In The Little Engine That Could, the little engine is not sure of its ability to take the train over the mountain, illustrating the
character vs. himself conflict.

4. The Greek myth of Atalanta illustrates character vs. society or the environment. Atalanta was expected to marry the man her father chose, but she did not wish to do so.

In the text box, give an example of each conflict from Sections 1-3 of Night.

serve the people! ,” smoothly translated by julia lovell, offers an initial sample of yan lianke’s writing to an english-speaking audience. a bluntly drawn, mildly erotic fable, it teases mao zedong by poking fun at a true believer who obeys the chairman’s precepts too literally. to a western sensibility, the broad strokes of yan lianke’s humor would seem to pose little risk of inciting rebellion, whether of the flesh or of the body politic. but then, part of the book’s attraction is that it doesn’t have a western sensibility. it lets the reader see — or rather, intuit — what jokes chinese officials don’t consider funny, and how very little it takes for a writer to be branded an incendiary in 21st-century china, more than three decades after the death of mao, a decade after the death of deng xiaoping and seven years since china entered the world trade organization, a move that would seem to signal a willingness (however wary) to mingle with the rest of the world.

i literally just read the book and studied it for months so i could you, but i need to know where these questions are coming from. they are too general.
