. . . I was so determined not to try, not to be anybody different that I learned to play only the most ear-splitting preludes, t

he most discordant hymns. . . . For the talent show, I was to play a piece called "Pleading Child" from Schumann's Scenes from Childhood. It was a simple, moody piece that sounded more difficult than it was. I was supposed to memorize the whole thing, playing the repeat parts twice to make the piece sound longer. But I dawdled over it, playing a few bars and then cheating, looking up to see what notes followed. I never really listened to what I was playing. I daydreamed about being somewhere else, about being someone else. What does the narration in the excerpts reveal about Jing-mei's character?
 The song is much too difficult for Jing-mei, so she cannot concentrate no matter what she does.

She thinks the talent show is a big joke and is not willing to work for it.

 She is trying her best, but she keeps getting distracted by her own imagination.

 She believes she cannot succeed even if she tries, so she doesn't bother to try.

What is the key scene in the story THE HIVE
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

The key scene in the story “The Hive” displays reality unflinchingly. In the very first scene of the book, there is a mob gathering and Cassie goes to join it. The scene displays how cruel Hive justice can be, as the target had done something wrong, but the way people were treating him was unfair, with the hashtag #monsternotaman trending and the punishment that was delivered. From this very first scene, Cassie questions Hive justice, and even before she is sentenced by it herself she wonders about whether it really is a good way to punish people for their online actions.
