People assumed that Grandmother didn't know English, but she could understand and speak it well. She was just proud. I tried to convince her that no one cared about her accent, but she disagreed. I told her this wasn't like back home, where she would be looked down upon for any little grammatical error. But she didn't believe me. She had lived too long in a country where one's speech reflected his or her status.

Which best explains how this passage develops the narrator's external conflict?

A. It illustrates the difficulty of trying to teach her grandmother a new language.

B. It implies that she is insecure about her family's cultural differences.

C. It explores two sides of an issue she is debating with her grandmother.

D. It shows that she resents the traditional values of her culture.

    B is most likely the answer because people think that she doesn't know it, but she actually does pretty well. She won't show it because she is insecure and that she thinks if someone heard her say a mistake she would be very ashamed of herself.
