Read the excerpts below from "two kinds" by amy tan and answer the question that follows. . i was so determined not to try, not to be anybody different that i learned to play only the most ear-splitting preludes, the most discordant hymns. . for the talent show, i was to play a piece called "pleading child" from schumann's scenes from childhood. it was a simple, moody piece that sounded more difficult than it was. i was supposed to memorize the whole thing, playing the repeat parts twice to make the piece sound longer. but i dawdled over it, playing a few bars and then cheating, looking up to see what notes followed. i never really listened to what i was playing. i daydreamed about being somewhere else, about being someone else. what does the narration in the excerpts reveal about jing-mei's character? the song is much too difficult for jing-mei, so she cannot concentrate no matter what she does. she thinks the talent show is a big joke and is not willing to work for it. she is trying her best, but she keeps getting distracted by her own imagination. she believes she cannot succeed even if she tries, so she doesn't bother to try.

Why does the author's description of the mercury boiler—"the mercury, when vaporized, going into a mercury turbine and then into a condenser, remaining hot enough to generate steam in a steam boiler"—intentionally incorporate such highly technical language? using technical language establishes the expertise of the writer and convey the complex nature of the process being described. using technical language allows the writer to subtly poke fun at those who seek to make basic processes seem overly complicated. using technical language encourages readers to develop deeper and more meaningful personal connections to the information. using technical language lets the writer make clear to readers that the article is intended for readers who are themselves experts on electricity.
