Answer:

The evidence from the text that best expresses the daughter's extrinsic motivation is the last option "And right then, I was determined to put a stop to her foolish pride."

Explanation:

Jing-mei is the narrator-character in Amy Tan's short story "Two Kinds". As a child, she was forced by her mother to take piano lessons. Her mother, a Chinese woman who immigrated to America, expected her to become a child prodigy.

At a certain point, Jing-mei hears a conversation between her mother and a friend in which they are comparing their daughters as if to determined which one is the most talented. <u>When Jing-mei's mother lies about her child, saying Jing-mei only thinks of music, that music is her unstoppable natural talented, Jing-mei decides she has had enough. She is more than ever determined to fail, to prove her mother wrong.</u>

<u>That is an example of extrinsic motivation. Jing-mei's reasons for her behavior do not come from within. Her determination is caused by her mother's actions and words. They are external to herself. She is motivated by her mother's behavior and changes her own in response to it.</u>
