Read the excerpt from The Namesake.
Ashoke hands over the lunch box, a windbreaker in case it gets cold. He thanks Mrs. Lapidus. “Be good, Nikhil,” he says in English. And then after a moment’s hesitation, he is gone.
When they are alone, Mrs. Lapidus asks, “Are you happy to be entering elementary school, Gogol?”
“My parents want me to have another name in school.”
“And what about you, Gogol? Do you want to be called by another name?”
After a pause, he shakes his head.
“Is that a no?”
He nods. “Yes.”
“Then it’s settled. Can you write your name on this piece of paper?”
Which best describes the conflict revealed by the conversation in this excerpt?
A) an external conflict between the cultural expectations of Gogol’s father and the cultural expectations of Gogol’s new country
B) an internal conflict between Gogol’s desire to keep his old name and his desire to respect his father’s wishes
C) an external conflict between Mrs. Lapidus’s educational expectations and the educational experiences Gogol had in India
D) an internal conflict between Mrs. Lapidus’s desire to respect Gogol’s wishes and her desire to respect Ashoke’s wishes
