Answer:

Vincent, the oldest brother is who receives the chess set for Christmas.

Explanation:

Hi,  "Rules of the Game" is a story by  Amy Tan. In this story Vincent, the oldest brother is who receives the chess set for Christmas.

It all starts with a Chinese young child called Waverly, and her brothers, that receive presents from a man dressed as Santa Claus at a Christmas party. One of the little gifts is a chess game given to the older brother.

Later in the story, Waverly becomes really good at playing chess, and an old man in the park, that saw potential in her, teaches her the ways of chess Jedi.

Feel free to ask for more if it´s necessary.

Why does Carson McCullers use the term malady to describe American loneliness
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

She sees loneliness as a unique disease. Malady means disease. The other question you might ask is does she see it as curable at some point? The answer to that is very difficult and yet very simple.


Most authors when they write about social qualities around them, see the world (or the part they live in) gripped in and strangled by the problem they are writing about.


McCullers wrote the Heart is a Lonely Hunter in 1940 just before America's entry into WWII. America had just come out of a depression, the worst on record since America became a nation. There is good reason to believe that loneliness and isolation of people was a serious problem.


That feeling, up until Pearl Harbor, was reflected in America's Foreign Policy. Most people did not want to become involved. The term used was isolation.


There are open studies on the internet that show that marriages were in a decline for WWI to WWII and then spiked in the 1950 to the highest level in American history since these stats were tracked. I am recording this to show that McCullers thought that the hardships of life sometimes mold our attitudes towards others.

Order the process for writing the critical book review.
Bezzdna [24]

You must first know the text and then find the evidence.  Revise the outline, and select the limits.  This will give you an organized prewrite to start the essay.  But you must still have a direction, so you will need to write the thesis statement.  Lastly, you should then write the essay.  Some may say to write the thesis before the outline, so you have a direction for the outline.  This is not a good process.
