<u>Explanation:</u>

It refers to the different types of personalities of children (daughters) Jing-mei's mother perceives. That is to say, there are daughters who willfully yield to the directions of their parents, and also those who blatantly refuse to obey.

For example, in the story, we are told about the many pressures faced by Jing-mei from her mother to become a child prodigy; that is, for her to overperform and achieve success beyond her age. However, Jing-mei isn't willing to yield to such directions.

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

d) Patricia wants to know more than superficial details about Francis.

Explanation: The responses, "You and millions." and "You and thousands." show that the hair and eye colors are common, superficial, and don't tell much about a person or who they really are. The details about the scars on the hands and the experience of having feet put into a soldier's blood serve as points to explore in a conversation to reveal what makes Francis's character unique. We can gain insight into how he thinks, and what has brought Francis to to this point in life.

Which of the following sentences uses the word improbable correctly?
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The sentence that uses the word improbable correctly is:

C. It is highly improbable that James will make it to class today; he has food poisoning.

Explanation:

"Improbable" is an adjective that means something is not likely to happen or to be true. But, in options A and B, "improbable" was used as a noun and as a verb, respectively. It also makes no sense to use "improbable" in the contexts given in each sentence. We can, thus, eliminate both options. Letter C, however, is correct. The word is used as it is supposed to, and it makes sense when inserted in the context - it is very unlikely that James will make it to class today.
