This question is regarding "Rules of the Game" by Amy Tan. From the passages about "invisible strength" and Waverly's mother stating that the "strongest wind cannot be seen we can infer that Waverly's mother values strength that can be found in restraint and silence. This can be seen when Waverly cries for candy at the candy store and her mother tells her to "bite her tongue". That time she doesn't get the candy, but the next time they go to the candy store Waverly stays quiet and receives candy. This is the mother's way of rewarding her for staying silent.

How does Anna’s mother decision to make a quilt affect future events in history
Pavel [41]

Answer:  The correct answer is: The author metaphorically describes quilts as weapons against strong winds in January. And she writes to remember and reimagine stories about her and her family. The author tries to give life to the quilt. She describes the daily routine of waking up under a quilt of many colors, the speaker begins to remember how the quilt felt since the sense of touch is very important for memory, uses the word faces to describe each fabric frame. The quilt had pieces of cloth that had a nostalgic meaning as first communion dresses, wedding dresses and sleepwear among others, the movement of the needle when sewing reminded the speaker of a galloping horse, each piece of cloth that the mother joins brings a different memory to the speaker. The mother cut each piece of cloth thinking of colors that combined and were according to some memory such as holidays, Corpus Christi, the seasons, the day of her wedding, but also brought back sad moments and therefore added a piece of dressed in a funeral and turned it into a black star. The conclusion is that what holds together all these pieces of cloth that represent various memories is love.

- What do you think death meant when he said: 'A SMALL BUT NOTEWORTHY NOTE I've seen so many young men
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

When Death said "A SMALL BUT NOTEWORTHY NOTE I've seen so many young men over the years who think they're running at other young men. They are not. They're running at me," I believe he meant this: young men in battle see their adversaries as each other. This viewpoint gives them a certain expectation of what will happen. However, in actuality they do battle with Death. Death does not mention, however, that young men’s inaccurate understanding, whether devised by themselves or promoted by their superiors, provides the foundation for all battles to take place.
