Question

which quotation from amy tans \two kinds\ effectively supports the universal theme that parents expectations can lead to childhood rebellion?

• \in all of my imaginings, i was filled with a sense that i would soon become perfect.\
• \im not going to play anymore, i said nonchalantly. why should i? im not a genius.\

-
o, this your piano, she said firmly. always your piano. you only one can play.\

• \i played a few bars, surprised at how easily the notes came back to me.\

Explanation:

The correct quotation shows the child refusing to comply with her mother's pressure to be a piano prodigy, which is direct rebellion against parental expectations. The other options either show the child's initial idealism, the mother's assertion of possession over the piano, or a later, neutral moment with the piano, none of which reflect rebellion against parental expectations.

Answer:

"I'm not going to play anymore,' I said nonchalantly. 'Why should I? I'm not a genius.'"
