Read the excerpt from julius caesar, act 2, scene 1.

portia. brutus, my lord.

brutus. portia, what mean you? wherefore rise you now?
it is not for your health thus to commit
your weak condition to the raw cold morning.

portia. nor for yours neither. you’ve ungently, brutus,
stole from my bed; and yesternight at supper
you suddenly arose, and walked about
musing and sighing, with your arms across,
and when i asked you what the matter was,
you stared upon me with ungentle looks.
i urged you further; then you scratched your head,
and too impatiently stamped with your foot.
yet i insisted, yet you answered not,
but with an angry wafture of your hand
gave sign for me to leave you. so i did,
fearing to strengthen that impatience
which seemed too much enkindled, and withal
hoping it was but an effect of humour,
which sometime hath his hour with every man.
it will not let you eat, nor talk, nor sleep,
and could it work so much upon your shape
as it hath much prevailed on your condition,
i should not know you, brutus. dear my lord,
make me acquainted with your cause of grief.

brutus. i am not well in health, and that is all.

which statement best summarizes the conflict in this passage?

a) portia is upset because brutus is behaving as if something is wrong, and he will not talk to her.

b) brutus is concerned that portia is awake so early in her weakened state.

c) portia is offended that brutus waved her away with an angry hand.

d) brutus is very sick, and portia is worried that he will die if he does not eat or sleep.
