Answer:
Jing-mei discovered that she and her mother are so different and that she will not let her mother's expectations be what she becomes. Rather, she will be her own self and do the things she wanted to do.
This scene helped develop the theme of discovering and accepting one's true identity and accepting things even though they may not be what others expect and want to see.
Explanation:
Amy Tan's short story "Two Kinds," tells the story of Jing-mei and her mothers’ high hopes for her. But despite all the expectations, Jing-mei also struggled with accepting her own identity as a Chinese girl living in America.
Paragraph 15 of the story reveals the scene where Jing-mei 'discovered' her true self, looking in the mirror. She declares<em> "I had new thoughts, willful thoughts - or rather, thoughts filled with lots of won'ts. I won't let her change me, I promised myself. I won't be what I'm not." </em>This scene is the transition from her rejecting her mother's expectations of her and her decision to be true to herself and do what she wants. She also discovered that she truly hated what her mother wants for her and that they are two poles apart.
This scene helped develop the theme of discovering one's identity amidst what her family expects from her and the need to 'adhere' to certain expected rules.

Hello. You did not submit the article to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

In that case, you should look in the text for the moment when a situation happens as a result of another situation. Therefore, the text must show an element (cause) which, when it happened, caused the creation of another element (effect).
The author could be considered unbiased in her treatment because she writes from a general perspective and rather than detailing just one side, she describes both sides of the story.
She bases her information off facts rather than opinion.
