<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The narrator wants her parents to adore her. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Based on the text, the narrator wants to be adored by her parents. Therefore, because of this, she has many imaginations and believes within no time, she will be perfect and get what she has always wanted. She wants to be at the top of everything where she will not be begging for anything from her parents but get it herself without even making a request to them.

Therefore this is the reason why she works and she wants to impress her parents, beyond that she wanted to prove that she does not need to be a prodigy.

Answer:

The narrator wants her parents to adore her.

Explanation:

In Amy Tan's short story "Two Kinds", the protagonist Jing-mei Woo tries so hard to win the approval of her parents. She wanted nothing more than to make her parents proud of what she is doing and would do everything to try to impress them.

In the given passage from the story, Jing-mei is talking about how she imagined her "<em>mother and father adore</em>" her, and "<em>would never feel the need to sulk for anything"</em>. She wanted to make her parents so impressed with her and to be on their approving side. This intrinsic motivation to try to appease them conflicts with her want to be accepted as she is. Her mother's high expectations of her compels June (Jing-mei) to try to do justice while conflicting with her need to assert her own identity.
