Answer:

They use the strategies for playing chess and for interacting with others.

Explanation:

Rules of the Game is a story by Amy Tan where Waverly's mother teaches her how to achieve more more by using the invisible strenght.

Invisible strength means quietly working towards a goal.

Waverly applies this to chess. She learns not to brag about her success or fret about losses.

For example a mentor she was learning chess from taught her that she should learn from her mistakes instead of being a sore loser.

Other rules are to never announce check with vanity lest someone with an unseen sword slit your throat, and to never throw pieces into the sandbox after losing a game.

Answer:

Passage 1 and 2 - Flashback.

Passage 3- Flash forward.

Explanation:

Flashback is the going back to the time in the past which was set before the present scene. Flashbacks provide the extra crucial information from the past to the current situation. They are a character's thinking or reminiscing of the times gone by. Passages 12 and 2 deal with the characters thinking back tro the times they had experienced or done. So, flashback will be matched with passage 1 and 2.

Flash-forward is the exact opposite of flashback. It represents the occurrence or presentation of scenes yet to come or expected to happen in the coming future scenes. Passage 3 reveals/ deals with what is to happen or to be expected in the future ("<em>Let me behold what I shall be in the days to come</em>") . This will be paired with passage 3.
