Nowadays, the word is used to refer to the belief that people are self-interest in their actions. <u>Skepticism</u> as a philosophy is the theory that achieving a certain knowledge is impossible. As for <u>syncretism</u>, it refers to the blending of two or more belief/religious systems or even cultures. <u>Monasticism</u> is also called monkhood and, as the name suggests, it concerns the abandonment of worldly pursuits in favor of spiritual endeavors. Finally, <u>utopia</u> refers to a place or a state in which everything is perfect. It usually refers to a perfect society, in which everyone works for the general good, rulers are not corrupt, and the people is impeccably happy.

Explanation:
"Rules of the Game" is a short story by Amy Tan. The main character is Waverly Jong, a young girl who becomes an excellent chess player. In the climax of the story, Waverly gets in trouble for speaking her mind. She ends up offending her mother and, embarrassed and scared, runs away from her.
<u>Upon coming back home, Waverly is extremely cautious. The line that particularly shows us that is:</u>
<u>I climbed the sixteen steps to the door, advancing quietly up each so as not to make any warning sounds.</u>
<u>Waverly knows very well her mother is angry at her. She is hoping to make no sound and to remain unnoticed, which is why she is cautious when climbing the steps to their apartment. As a matter of fact, Waverly is a very smart girl. The story ends with her visualizing her difficult relationship with her mother as a game of chess. For now, she is losing. Her mother is still more clever, more experienced. No wonder the door was locked.</u>
