Read the excerpt below from the short story "Rules of the Game" by Amy Tan and answer the question that follows. My mother placed my first trophy next to a new plastic chess set that the neighborhood Tao society had given to me. As she wiped each piece with a soft cloth, she said, "Next time win more, lose less." "Ma, it's not how many pieces you lose," I said. "Sometimes you need to lose pieces to get ahead." "Better to lose less, see if you really need." At the next tournament, I won again, but it was my mother who wore the triumphant grin. "Lost eight piece this time. Last time was eleven. What I tell you? Better off lose less!" I was annoyed, but I couldn't say anything. Describe the primary and secondary conflicts in the excerpt. Then, analyze what motivates each character to act the way they do in the excerpt.
Answer:
Primary Conflict- Man against man. This translates to Waverly against her Mother. This happens when they argue about the best way to win. Pride motivates her mother's actions.
Secondary Conflict- Man against himself- This translates to Waverly against herself. It happens when she feels annoyed, an internal emotion, or conflict. Waverly is motivated by modesty. This makes her feel embarrassed and annoyed at her mother's behavior.
Explanation:
In the book "Rules of the Game" by Amy Tan, we learn of a Chinese family who are resident in the United States. Lindo is the mother of Waverly and she has a controlling attitude which makes her dictate to her daughter how best to win the Chess games. All her daughter's explanation to her of what it takes to win fell on deaf ears because of her prideful and controlling nature.
Waverly on the other hand feels sad and annoyed after she won and her mother came to assert to her the rightfulness of her earlier opinion. Her mother seems to take the glory for her win which can be seen from her triumphant grin.
Describe two different types of conflicts from Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry.
Answer:
1.one conflict is that the white people in roll of thunder, hear my cry don't treat the African american people fairly. 2.And Cassie struggles to control her own fear and worry. She is so quiet that both Big Ma and Mama notice a change in her behavior. Cassie started not really eating or sleeping as much as she usually does, and Big Ma says Cassie has been talking in her sleep. Furthermore, she hardly ever goes out to play and has been rude to her brothers. Cassie’s internal struggle with her fear has changed the way she feels and acts.
Explanation:
The African Americans in Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry are not treated fairly by the white people, and Cassie finds it difficult to manage her own anxiety and worry.
What are the two conflicts in the story?There are two types of conflict: internal and external. Internal conflict occurs when a character battles with conflicting wants or beliefs within themselves. They experience it inside, and it shapes how they evolve as a person. A character is pitted against an outside force or person in an external conflict.
Big Ma and Mama both note a difference in their demeanour since she is so quiet. Big Ma claims Cassie has been talking in her sleep and that she has stopped eating and sleeping as much as she usually does. She has also been disrespectful to her brothers and barely ever goes out to play. The internal battle Cassie endures with her dread has altered the way she thinks, feels, and behaves.

what do they say still happens on a winter's night?
Answer:
I believe you're talking about a quote from the poem "Highway men" by Alfred Noyes that I'll put below.
Explanation:
“And still on a winter's night, they say, when the wind is in the trees,
When the moon is a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,
When the road is a gypsy's ribbon looping the purple moor,
The highwayman comes riding--
Riding--riding--
The highwayman comes riding, up to the old inn-door.
Over the cobbles he clatters and clangs in the dark inn-yard,
He taps with his whip on the shutters, but all is locked and barred,
He whistles a tune to the window, and who should be waiting there
But the landlord's black-eyed daughter--
Bess, the landlord's daughter--
Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair.”

The correct answer to this open question is the following.
You forgot to include the options for this question. However, we can say the following.
The idea for the 13 colonies to unite under one "federal government", was born from Benjamin Franklin's work with Native Americans in Pennsylvania. He convinced other colonial leaders to model a democratic form of government inspired by the Iroquois League of Nations.
At the end of the 1500s, five Native American Indian tribes decided to join forces and formed what was known as the Iroquois League of Nations. They basically created this association to fight their common enemy, the Huron Indians.
The Native American Indian tribes that formed the league were the Seneca, Mohawk, Oneida, Cayuga, and Onondaga.
American Founding Father Benjamin Franklin, took the idea from the strong position of this league and shared with other colonists leaders to form a united nation.

Everyone learns the same way. Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Why or Why not?
Answer:
I disagree to a huge extend, no one's brain can biologically be the same. Other people may prefer using logic or reasoning to help them understand concepts. They aim to understand the reasons behind the learning, and have a good ability to understand the bigger picture. Some like to learn alongside others/in groups and may be confident asking questions out loud.
Explanation:
I completely disagree; no two people's brains can possibly be alike physiologically. Others might choose to apply logic or reasoning to make sense of notions.
Do people learn in the same way?While current experts acknowledge that not everyone learns in the same manner, they also argue that our interests and preferences, rather than an innate learning style, have a greater impact on how we recall new information. For instance, there is a larger likelihood that someone who likes playing the piano and is eager in improving their talents in this area would learn more quickly than those who don't.
However, a student's background and skills also play a role in getting higher results. In any event, the discussion around learning styles has enabled the creators of e-learning courses to broaden their method of instruction and include more instructional strategies.

Carlos' language reveals that he has trouble speaking English clearly.
What does the passage reveal about Carlos? The passage reveals that Carlos has trouble expressing himself clearly in English. This could mean that he is not a native English speaker and that English is his second language. The passage reveals that he has trouble with pronunciation as well well as grammar. The section of the passage - "What ees wrrrong with her eh-speech?" suggests that his pronunciation might be different than that of a native speaker. Similarly, "It show no gratitude", presents a grammatical error. Ideally, the phrase should have been - "It shows no gratitude". The passage also suggests that Carlos, in his rage further loses his control over language and his language begins to sound even more broken than usual. However, this cannot be ascertained because the passage does not provide an example of how he sounds usually. What are the major skills in language? The four main skills that determine someone's knowledge of a language are- listening, speaking, reading and writing. Listening includes being able to understand what is said and using that information. Speaking involves pronunciation and the formation of sentences. Reading includes the ability to understand words written on paper. Writing includes being able to express oneself through words on paper. Grammar and pronunciation are two other skills that appear in juxtaposition with the four main skills.Learn more about poor language skills here-
