Consider Waverly “Meimei” Jong’s actions and their consequences in the short story “Rules of the Game” by Amy Tan. Which theme is supported best by her actions?
A) Like chess, power is gained through strategy, not emotion.
B) Overt strength is more powerful than “invisible strength.”
C) Silence is a weapon that should never be wielded.
D) It’s impossible for parents to win a battle of wills against their children.
Answer:
The correct answer is A)
Explanation:
"Meimei" Jong's actions were very emotional and caused her to fall out with her mom.
She had made a mistake by mouthing thoughts she had not properly thought out and then ran off. She had nowhere else to go but home. Unfortunately for her, her mom was also a "chess champion" albeit an ardent player in real life scenarios. For when "Meimei" eventually enters the house, her mother announces to her brothers to let her be. Dinner was already served and eaten by everyother person with none reserved for her. Her mother taught her that night that she might be a champion at chess strategy but that when it came to it's applicability in life, she had a lot to learn.
Cheers!
Answer:
President Kennedy’s usage of the phrase, “not the peace of the grave or the security of the slave,” in his Strategy of Peace Speech delivered at American University (which I had the opportunity of attending) appears to be eluding to society’s misconceptions about peace. He appears to be urging citizens to examine current attitudes on peace and discussing the need for redefinition.
