Read the excerpt from "Fish Cheeks.”
After everyone had gone, my mother said to me, "You want to be the same as American girls on the outside.” She handed me an early gift. It was a miniskirt in beige tweed. "But inside you must always be Chinese. You must be proud you are different. Your only shame is to have shame.”
Which statement best describes the purpose and effect of this excerpt?
a) It teaches readers how Americans are different from Chinese and causes them to question if Chinese girls wear miniskirts.
b) It entertains readers by revealing Tan's feelings about being different and causes them to wonder if her perspective will change.
c) It teaches readers that Tan looks different from American girls and causes them to determine that her mother wants to change that.
d) It entertains readers by sharing an exciting time when Tan received a special gift, and causes them to think she will feel better.
