Know the Answer?

Garrett Douglas · Answer 1

I think it's C. The monster is torn between good and evil.

Explanation:

In A. The word exhibited is present, which means that the monster publicly shows his good and bad deeds. This can't be the answer cuz people don't see the good sides in the monster.

This also applies to B because it says the word "show"

So C makes more sense

Hope it's right!
