Something that opposes the central character, or the protagonist, must be its completely opposite counterpart, its enemy, so to say. So, the answer is 'antagonist'.

Antagonist

Antagonist contains the prefix ant- which means against. The antagonist is the person, idea, force, or set of circumstances that opposes the central character. For example, Voldemort in Harry Potter is the antagonist. The ocean is the antagonist for Marlin, Nemo's dad, since he has to cross the entire ocean to find his son.

A motif is a dominant idea in a literary work. The protagonist is the good guy or main character. The central conflict is the main problem faced by the protagonist.

choli [55]

The correct answer is "Ordinary people can act heroically in chaotic situations".

Explanation: In "The Great Fire", the narrator explains White's testimony of the  Great Chicago fire; there were accounts of men taking advantage of the situation and overcharging services for people in distress, but in other instances, there were regular people who helped for free. The everyday people who chose to help without expecting anything in return were the true heroes.
