MWhich story premise contains the most conflict?

B. Fry and Ria's friendship is compromised when Fry discovers Ria's political views.

Explanation:

A conflict is when there are opposing or contrasting points of view or interests. This conflict can be between two or more characters or things. And this conflict of interest can either be internal or external, depending on the mannerism of the event or situation or characters.

Among the given sentences, the most conflict can be seen in sentence B. This sentence contains two characters who are friends but came into conflict because of their contrasting political views. Thus, this is a character vs. character conflict.

Sentence A contains no conflict as the audience laughs along with the comedian's joke.

Sentence C contains a conflict between the principal and his own opinion, which is not much of a conflict.

Sentence D contains a character Min Reed who doesn't put up with nonsense. This can be a conflict too but it within the character only and doesn't pose much of a conflict as compared to sentence B.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

the answer is a.

explanation:

the clause "looking toward the south" modifies "a funnel cloud." it's not really the cloud that's "looking," but grammatically, that clause is modifying the cloud.
