OLD MAN AN THE SEA

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is option C. man vs. nature.

Explanation:

In the case of this passage we can observe a conflict of man vs nature type.

This kind of conflict reflects a situation where the man is confronted with a situation of nature that is beyond his control. Usually in this type of conflict it is used to demonstrate survival.

The man in question must resolve this conflict in order to move forward in history.

In this case, the conflict would be the conflict of killing a fish. If we quote Ernest Hemingway's text it says:

"But you enjoyed killing the dentuso, I thought. He lives on the live fish as you do. He is not a scavenger nor just a moving appetite as some sharks are. He is beautiful and noble and knows no fear of anything.

 "I killed him in self-defense," the old man said aloud. "And I killed him well."

 Besides, I thought, everything kills everything else in some way. Fishing kills me exactly as it keeps me alive. The boy keeps me alive, be thought. I must not deceive myself too much. "

Therefore, for survival man had to kill the fish.

This leads us to say that the correct option is option C

it's B. harmony in nature
