In at least 150 words, tell how the doughter's personality aftects the plot of the story “Two Kinds”

exis [7]

Answer:

Jing-mei is the daughter in the story Two Kinds. In this story, Jing-mei is the daughter of a Chinese immigrant, who has great hopes for the future of the girl. Jing-mei's mother believes she could be a prodigy and wants her to work hard in order to achieve things.

However, the personality of Jing-mei greatly affects how the mother and the daughter relate. Jing-mei resents the pressure that her mother places on her. She also believes that the fact that her mother pressures her so much makes her unable to enjoy the things she tries. When she is terrible at the piano because she did not try, she hopes her mother allows her to stop, instead of pushing her again. The combination of the two personalities leads to a lot of conflict between the two characters.

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Americans never elected Gerald R. Ford president or even vice president—Richard Nixon appointed him after Vice President Spiro Agnew resigned in October 1973. Today, Ford’s brief presidency is often forgotten. Yet during Ford’s two-and-a-half years, his wife, Betty, became the most controversial first lady since Eleanor Roosevelt. Peddling their marriage as a “normal” partnership struggling with the challenges of modern family life, Betty Ford inserted herself at the flashpoint of the country’s social upheavals. Her boldness may have cost her husband the presidency in 1976.Explanation: just copy and paste and have a good day!
