Afew years ago, she offered to give me the piano, for my thirtieth birthday. i had not played in all those years. i saw the offer as a sign of forgiveness, a tremendous burden removed. "are you sure? " i asked shyly. "i mean, won't you and dad miss it? " "no, this your piano," she said firmly. "always your piano. you only one can play." "well, i probably can't play anymore," i said. "it's been years." "you pick up fast," said my mother, as if she knew this was certain. "you have natural talent. you could been genius if you want to." "no, i couldn't." "you just not trying," said my mother. and she was neither angry nor sad. she said it as if to announce a fact that could never be disproved. "take it," she said. but i didn't at first. it was enough that she had offered it to me. and after that, every time i saw it in my parents' living room, standing in front of the bay window, it made me feel proud, as if it were a shiny trophy i had won back. based on the narration and dialogue, which statement describes the narrator's mother best? she is still bitter that her daughter is not a genius. she doesn't really want to give the piano to her daughter, but suyuan can't play it. she's confident that her daughter's attitude is the only reason she's not a genius. she knows what the piano means to her daughter.

Westridge, ohio — more than 600 transportation employees went on strike at midnight last night after the westridge city council rejected their demand for a 10% pay increase. the strike affects all bus and rail services throughout westridge and the neighboring communities of turlock, smithfield, and lowell grove. "we hoped we would not be forced to strike, but until our demands are met, we really have no choice," said wanda thompson, a representative of the transportation employees union. "we simply don't get paid what we deserve." members of the westridge city council see the situation differently. "our employees already earn 6% more than the state average for similar transportation jobs," said raoul cobian, president of the westridge city council. hopefully the two groups can come to an agreement soon and bring this unnecessary strike to an end. what is the common name for the underlined information in the article?
