Ok understoood

Explanation:

Based on the story mentioned I have my personal thoughts about daugthers´subject. We can have many kidsone different from the other so I perfectly realized what is going on with "Two Kinds". I have two daughters that are different one another like the water is different from the oil

So, you don´t have to worry about them BUT LOVE THEM ALWAYS.

As this is a personal task, we cannot provide an essay for you. However, we can provide an initial analysis of the story that can help as guidance for your work.

In the story "Two Kinds," we witness the conflict that exists between Jing-mei and her mother. Jing-mei was born in the United States, but her mother came from China, and this creates a difficult cultural conflict between the two. While Jing-mei has dreams that could be characterized as more "American" (such as being a Chinese Shirley Temple), her mother wants her to follow her instructions and be more traditionally successful.

One meaning of the "two kinds" idea is that of the conflict between the kind of daughter Jing-mei is meant to be and the daughter that she actually is. However, another meaning becomes obvious towards the end of the story. As she finds the two halves of the song ("Pleading Child" and "Perfectly Contented"), Jing-mei realizes that she is also two different kinds of person, who are not necessarily in conflict, but can reconcile. The two parts of her are as much united and complementary as the two parts of the song.

sensory details?

so i`m assuming you are writing something from a bats (the animal) point of view. if this is the case, you can use sights, sounds, feelings, and tastes.

and idk what you mean by domain, but all of the sensory details will depend on where the bat is.

a bat doesn't see color very well, so its surroundings will be dulled.

it can hear super well. so maybe it can hear the insects on the ground

feelings. you can imagine how a bat would feel from its perspective. it all depends on where it lives.

maybe it can taste the salt in the air, or smell water, or something. all of these details are completely dependent on where it is located.

hope this .

there are two central themes in  the miracle worker: that the human spirit can triumph over even the most daunting of disabilities and that a dedicated teacher can transform the lives of those with whom he or she comes into contact. these inspirational themes have long been personified in the widely known true-life relationship between helen keller and annie sullivan, but  the miracle worker  also dramatizes collateral issues that extend beyond the particular case. underlying helen’s process of learning basic principles of what annie terms “obedience” (decorum, etiquette, and hygiene), there are more universal lessons of self-governance—the inculcation of self-restraint instead of willfulness, the development of self-discipline instead of self-indulgence. only when these lessons have been mastered can helen begin to acquire language—which, annie says, “is to the mind more than light is to the eye.”
