One superstition I have heard is that if a black cat crosses your path you will fall to bad-luck and will experience misfortune.
A superstition that I had was that if you broke a mirror you would be cursed for 7 years. This influenced me from a young age not to destroy any reflective surfaces as we had a lot of those in the house. I believed that my parents tried to influence me/ tell me at a young age was so that feared of one day falling into misfortune which luckily never happened. I started to finally not believe the superstition when I opened my locker and my mirror fell and was everywhere and weeks past and nothing bad happened.
Hoped this helped in some way,

The statement that best describes the major conflict in Amy Tan's "Two kinds" is D. It is a character vs. character conflict, as the mother wishes for an obedient daughter, while the daughter desires independence.
The narrator refuses to learn to play the piano, not because she doesn't' like it but because she is determined to show her mother she is no prodigy nor could become one, because she wants to be who she is and not what her mother tell her to be.
The sentence that best corrects the original one is option 3) “Noticing that the patio table had been turned over by the storm, Anton flipped it back on its feet.”
In this option, we make it clear that the doer of the action (flipping back the table) is Anton and in the original sentence is not mentioned.
The first option is incorrect since it says that the storm flipped back the chair instead of Anton.
Option number two is also incorrect since the meaning is not clear, especially the 2nd part of the sentence.
And the last option is also incorrect because it uses the passive voice in both parts of the sentence, when it should be using acting voice in the 2nd part, making emphasis on the doer of the action (Anton) rather than on the action itself.
