Read the excerpt from "Justin Lebo.” On the way home, Justin was silent. His mother assumed he was lost in a feeling of satisfaction. But he was thinking about what would happen once those bikes got wheeled inside and everyone saw them. How would all those kids decide who got the bikes? Two bikes could cause more trouble than they would solve.

What conflict is introduced in this excerpt?

A - The residents of the Kilbarchan Home for Boys may not know how to ride the bicycles Justin brought.
B - There are not enough staff members at the Kilbarchan Home for Boys to oversee the distribution of the bicycles.
C - The residents of the Kilbarchan Home for Boys may not like the bicycles that Justin restored.
D - There are not enough bicycles for the residents of the Kilbarchan Home for Boys.

The conflict is that there are not enough bicycles for the residents of the Kilbarchan Home for Boys.

He was just thinking: "how would all those kids decide who got the bikes?" he only had two bicycles and they were more than two. He was thinking that it was going to cause trouble.

Explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
