What is the struggle between two opposing forces or characters?

Motif.
External Conflict.
Internal Conflict.
Foreshadowing.

The correct answer is: External Conflict.

External conflict refers to the struggle between two opposing forces or characters. Motif, internal conflict, and foreshadowing refer to literary devices and techniques, but do not necessarily involve the direct struggle between two opposing forces or characters. Motif is a recurring element or idea in a story, internal conflict is a struggle within a character's mind or emotions, and foreshadowing is a hint or clue about future events. While all of these may be present in a story, they do not directly capture the concept of conflict between opposing forces or characters. Therefore, the correct answer is B External Conflict.
