The dilemma that Mary faces when she must decide whether or not to become a heroine, like the ones that she reads about at school, can best be described as ______________.


characters


external conflict


exposition


internal conflict



Answer :

Since Mary is struggling with making a decision for herself, this would be an example of internal conflict. Characters isn't a dilemma, exposition is how the story is "set up" so that's incorrect and external conflict means she struggles with something that is NOT herself.
