7th grade english help please
Ben slammed the front door and started for his room. “Ben, come in here,” his father said from the kitchen. He could tell by the tone of his father’s voice that he was in trouble. He turned and went into the kitchen where both his parents were sitting at the kitchen table. His father pushed a piece of paper toward him. “Explain that,” he said. Ben examined the paper. It was a traffic ticket. “Where did this come from?” he asked. “It came in today’s mail,” his father replied. “It says our car ran a red light at 7:30 on the night of July 23rd. The 23rd was a Saturday, and I believe you had the car that night. Wasn’t that the night you took Jennifer to the concert? I know your mother and I were home watching TV.” “Yes, I had the car that night, but I didn’t get a ticket,” he said, looking down at the piece of paper, which had a photo of the family car’s license plate. “Oh yes, you did,” his mother said. “There’s a red-light camera at that intersection now, and it takes a picture of anyone running the light.” “Unless you were letting someone else drive our car, I’d say you’re the guilty party here.” Ben dropped the paper on the table as he sighed. “I guess so. Does this mean I lose my license?” “No, but it does mean you lose some of our confidence in you. What were you thinking, running a red light?” his mother said. “I’m sorry, Mom and Dad, but the left-turn signal was only letting one or two cars through each time, and we were running late for the concert and had already sat through three lights, at least. Am I going to have to go to court?” “No, but you do have to pay a $75 fine.” “Seventy-five bucks!” he said. “That’s more than I paid for the concert tickets.” His dad squeezed his shoulder. “I guess you’ll stop on yellow next time.” “I sure will. How long do I have before I have to pay the fine?” “You have a month from the date on the ticket,” his mother said. “Sorry about that, son.” 1. What is the main conflict of this passage? Ben is stuck at a traffic light on his way to a concert. Ben's parents lose their confidence and trust in him. Ben gets upset because he cannot afford to pay the fine. Ben gets a ticket for driving through a red light.
