The character trait that emerges as a result of Jing-mei's conflict with her mother is willfulness.The story “” reflects on the relation of a mother and her daughter who had been brought up in different cultures. Suyuan, Jing-mei's mother wanted her to become child prodigy of America. Suyuan tests her daughter in different activities restlessly. She gives Jing-mei piano lessons too. Jing-mei too tries hard but fails. Jing-mei wants everyone and her mother to accept her as she. Her mother was not ready to accept her as she is in reality. In anger and distress, Jing-mei shouts at her mother by saying that she would have been very happy if she too would be dead as her twin sisters. She excepts her mother to accept her the way she is.

The correct answer to this question is Willfulness. The reason is that the narration of staring at a boring face represents the feeling of frustration and lack of self confidence. Then, as she hits the bottom and starts crying in anger, she discovers she is a determined woman,that she is powerful and mighty, so she finds the courage to keep her determination. On the other hand, judging by the outcome of her reaction, it is not quite possible to infer other trait.

After reading the story, i would imagine that the best answer would be A) honesty. She tell her mom her honest feelings and does not lie to her.

The character trait emerges as a result of Jing- mei's conflict with her mother is willfulness.This most expressed in when she said, "And after seeing my mother's disappointed face once again, something inside me began to die. I hated the tests, the raised hopes and failed expectations". She went ahead and continue to express her wilfulness by saying, "I had new thoughts, willful thoughts, or rather thoughts filled with lots of won’ts. I won’t let her change me, I promised myself".

This question is based on "Two Kinds" which was written by the author Amy Tan. And based on this story, the character trait that surfaces as a result of the conflict between Jing-mei and her mother is WILLFULNESS. The answer to this would be the second option. Hope this helps.
