The answer is C. When Amy refers to dinner time with her family, she describes, not a pleasant but a distressing time during which her parents did things and behaved in embarassing ways. The fish cheeks that her father eats and offers her represents Amy's heritage but she would much prefer to just avoid the ritual of serving it and, perhaps not to see Robert's grimace.

Answer:

A. The fish cheeks that her father eats represent Amy's Chinese heritage, which she tries to suppress.

Explanation:

One of the hints we get that makes us assume the fish cheeks are an important symbol is the fact that the story is called "Fish Cheeks." This implies that the fish cheeks play an important role in the story. The fish cheeks represent Amy's Chinese heritage. It is true that she loves it (in the same way she loves the fish cheeks), but it can also make her feel embarrassed. She is particularly embarrassed at this point in the story, when she knows that Robert and his family are not used to her family's ways.

Answer:

This is really good!!

Explanation:

I really enjoyed your writing and I like how you have set this story up!! The story is extremely intriguing and I almost didn't want to stop reading. I love your descriptive language and it makes the story feel alive. The scenarios feel real and its easy to put yourself in the place of Winter (who is an interesting character) and feel sorry for her and her situation. The one thing I think that could help this even more is maybe some even more descriptive words when describing her running away from Cain (she heard every leaf crunch under her feet and cringed at the thought of him hearing her, she felt the cold breeze and stiff air more than ever alone in that tree and she sat in the short amount of safety that was given to her in that moment, she heard Cains manic laugh echo through the forest, ect.). I feel as though this could make that scene even more better than it already is!! :)

I love this idea and your creativity! Keep writing, this will be amazing!!
