Read the passage from "Two Kinds.” Last week I sent a tuner over to my parents’ apartment and had the piano reconditioned, for p

urely sentimental reasons. My mother had died a few months before and I had been getting things in order for my father, a little bit at a time. I put the jewelry in special silk pouches. The sweaters she had knitted in yellow, pink, bright orange—all the colors I hated—I put those in moth-proof boxes. I found some old Chinese silk dresses, the kind with little slits up the sides. I rubbed the old silk against my skin, then wrapped them in tissue and decided to take them home with me. What evidence supports the idea that the narrator’s motivation is intrinsic? “Last week I sent a tuner over to my parents’ apartment and had the piano reconditioned, for purely sentimental reasons.” “My mother had died a few months before and I had been getting things in order for my father, a little bit at a time.” “I put the jewelry in special silk pouches. The sweaters she had knitted in yellow, pink, bright orange—all the colors I hated—I put those in moth-proof boxes.” “I found some old Chinese silk dresses, the kind with little slits up the sides.”

The answer is:

"Last week I sent a tuner over to my parents’ apartment and had the piano reconditioned, for purely sentimental reasons.”


This is intrisic because she says, "purely for sentimental reasons" meaning she wasn't influenced by anything from the outside, this was something she did on her own based on how she personally felt. It was based on her emotions and her feelings. Hope this helps:)

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Michael: Hey Chike, how prepared are you for the entry test?

Chike: I've done the best I can, but I don't think I'm prepared.

Michael: Where do you have difficulty?

Chike: I don't have a clue about Chemistry. I've tried to understand it, but I can't.

Michael: I could help, if you want.

Chike: No, no need. I'm going to cheat on the test.

Michael: No, that's not good.

Chike: My mind is made up, without cheating, I can't ace the test.

Michael: If you cheat and get into college, will you keep cheating? You would still meet Chemistry there.

Chike: Yeah, you're right. What time would you be free, so we can revise?

Michael: Anytime from 8.

Chike: Alright. Thank you.
