Theme is the central message or insight that is revealed through a story. Anyone can find the theme just by analyzing the characters' actions and the consequences of their actions. For example, If a character's actions help him or her reach her goals, then that action may be viewed more positively by the reader. In the short story "Rules of the Game" by Amy Tan, Lindo Jong works very hard to impart daily lessons that will ]help her success to her daughter. The actions she used to encourage her daughter is to try to succeed by mastering the art of "invisible strength". Finally based on the characters' actions and the results of their consequences, I believe that the theme is that true strength is calm, patient, and strategic.

I looked it up online and found the question related to this personal statement. It is the following:
Why does the writer need to revise the personal statement?
A. sentence 1 should include the writer’s first name.
B. sentence 2 should state what the essay prompt was.
C. sentence 3 should avoid mentioning money.
D. sentence 4 should avoid the extreme opinion.
Answer:
The reason why the writer needs to revise the personal statement is:
C. sentence 3 should avoid mentioning money.
Explanation:
<u>A personal statement is supposed to be a brief description of oneself in connection to the career one wishes to pursue. It should mention one's experience, education, and strengths in relation to that field. However, mentioning money should be avoided.</u> The personal statement is not the "place" to do so. Instead of sounding ambitious in a good way, talking about "good money" - as the writer did in the passage we are analyzing here - may make one sound shallow.
