Which excerpts from Two Kinds are examples of internal conflict?
rewona [7]

The excerpts from "Two Kinds" which are examples of internal conflict are:

"before going to bed that night, i looked in the mirror above the bathroom sink and when i saw only my face staring back—and that it would always be this ordinary face—i began to cry. Such a sad, ugly girl! I made high-pitched noises like a crazed animal, trying to scratch out the face in the mirror."

"so maybe i never really gave myself a fair chance. I did pick up the basics pretty quickly, and i might have become a good pianist at that young age. But i was so determined not to try, not to be anybody different that i learned to play”

The story “Two Kinds” reflects on the relation of a mother and her daughter who had been brought up in different cultures. Suyuan, Jing-mei's mother wanted her to become child prodigy of America. Suyuan tests her daughter in different activities restlessly. She gives Jing-mei piano lessons too. Jing-mei too tries hard but fails. She becomes upset as she will be the reason for her mother's disappointment. Later, Jing-mei wants everyone and her mother to accept her as she. Her mother was not ready to accept her as she is in reality. There arises many cases in which the characters undergoes conflict with other characters and with themselves as well.
