Review the chapter in the Longman concerning the rhetorical mode Narration (pgs. 109-116). Discuss two narration qualities you see in the poem and the short story collectively. 1 para.

Both works are flashbacks of something that happened in their childhood. The narrator of “Araby” talks about how he and his friend experienced things and how he felt about his friend’s sister.

 * Journal Prompt 2.** Conflict and conflict resolution are narration qualities. Conflicts can be man vs. man, man vs. nature, and man vs. self. Describe one example from Mayblum's "The Price We Pay" that exemplifies one of the aforementioned areas of conflict. 1 para.

The conflict in “The Price We Pay” would be man vs. man. The one reason that stands out to me is the planes crashing into the buildings. The terrorist, whom ever that may be, intentionally tried to bring the people of the United States down, by infiltrating our people with insecurities about their protection from them. That incident also has proven to the United States people that we are able to be hurt as a whole! The conflict has also awake Americans from their slumber to make them realize that they can become one of the many that are touched. But his resolution to this was to leave us alone we will kill ourselves, I agree with that!
