Question

What conflict does this passage introduce?

The characters do not want to be at a dinner party.
Mrs. Gleason went off with the relish tray to the other
guests, and we carefully watched to see what they did.
Everyone seemed to eat the raw vegetables quite happily.
Mother took a bite of her celery. Crunch. "It's not bad!"
she whispered.
Father took a bite of his celery. Crunch. "Yes, it is good,"
he said, looking surprised.
I took a bite, and then my brother. Crunch, crunch. It was
more than good; it was delicious. Raw celery has a slight
sparkle, a zingy taste that you don't get in cooked celery.
When Mrs. Gleason came around with the relish tray, we
each took another stalk of celery, except my brother. He
took two.

Answer 1

B Took the Instruction

Answer 2

The Characters are not sure how they should eat raw vegetables .

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe it's this one, because they were pretty skeptical about the celery, but never said that they hated vegetables. It seems that way because they usually eat it cooked, as it said in the excerpt, so the answer should be, they were not sure how they should eat raw vegetables. Hopefully this helps!
