The Puerto Rican sisters in "I Want to Be Miss America" try to adopt the "American look."

Explanation:

In the short story I Want to Be Miss America, Ju lia Alvarez wrote about how four sisters from the Dominican Republic tried to adapt to their new life in New York, despite being "Hispanics". Their physical appearance, their features all defy their own need to "look" American.

While watching their annual Miss America pageant, the narrator recounts how she and her three sisters would try to look like those in the pageant. They even bought "a big tube of Nair" and shaved their legs despite their mother's warnings. She also mentioned, "We would have to translate our looks into English, iron and tweeze them out, straighten them and mold them into Made-in-the-USA beauty". These show that the sisters tried hard to adopt the "American look".
