Answer:

Jing-mei starts out being excited and confident about her mother's plans for her. She believes that if she and her mother found the right kind of prodigy for Jing-mei, then Jing-mei would one day become a perfect child. As she begins losing hope, however, Jing-mei's character starts to change. Tired of constantly failing her mother's high expectations, she decides to set her own expectations, and she becomes willful, disobedient, and vocal. Ironically, her motivation throughout the story stays the same; she wants her mother to love and accept her. She knows she'll never be the type of girl her mother wants, so she resists her mother's wishes. Yet by doing the opposite of what her mother wants, Jing-mei still cannot feel that acceptance that she really wants.

Answer:

Understanding self and others

Explanation:

Liz damages Nicole's cherished possessions because she does not treat them with respect. Rather than telling Nicole the truth and giving her the opportunity to repair or salvage the damaged tea set, Liz lies to Nicole and discards her heirlooms, incorrectly believing that a more expensive tea set is better. When Liz tries to give Nicole the new tea set Nicole didn't accept it. Liz then thought Nicole was being ungrateful. However for Nicole, the real value of the tea set was the history attached to it not its material worth. Not only did Liz not understand Nicole she didn't understand herself because she doesn't understand how rude and disrespectful she's really being. She thinks Nicole is being disrespectful but she's the disrespectful one by not telling Nicole the truth and ruining her possessions.
