Answer 3

Read the passage from "By the Waters of Babylon.”

Nevertheless, it was strange. There was a washing-place but no water—perhaps the gods washed in air. There was a cooking-place but no wood, and though there was a machine to cook food, there was no place to put fire in it. Nor were there candles or lamps—there were things that looked like lamps but they had neither oil nor wick. All these things were magic, but I touched them and lived—the magic had gone out of them. Let me tell one thing to show. In the washing-place, a thing said "Hot" but it was not hot to the touch—another thing said "Cold" but it was not cold. This must have been a strong magic but the magic was gone. I do not understand—they had ways—I wish that I knew.

Answer 4

Well I honestly think this one is Character vs Self because he has devices to use, but doesn't have what they were meant to be used for. I don't think this is Character vs Society because there is no laws that were set up resulting in the main characters problems.
