which statement best explains the motivation for the narrators mother to introduce her daughter to everyone they meet?
she wants to adhere to the customs of the chinese community.
she wants to satisfy peoples curiosity about her daughter.
she wants to share in her daughters accomplishments.
she wants to exert control over her daughter.
The passage shows the mother's pride in her daughter. When the narrator (the daughter) had no tournament, the mother took her to the market and introduced her. This indicates that the mother wants to share in her daughter's accomplishments. There is no indication of adhering to Chinese community customs (no mention of specific cultural - related reasons for introduction other than pride), satisfying people's curiosity (the focus is on the mother's pride, not others' curiosity), or exerting control (the introduction is a positive sharing, not a controlling act).
