Read the introductory paragraph from a literary analysis essay.

in "a life with books,” julian barnes writes, "when you read a great book, you don’t escape from life, you plunge deeper into it.” barnes believes that literature allows readers to connect more deeply with their lives by reading about people whose experiences mirror their own. we can learn from literature how to approach difficulties in our own lives and face them head on, finding redemption. conflict leading to reconciliation can provide important lessons to the reader, as shown in "two kinds” by amy tan and the woman warrior by maxine hong kingston.

which quotations from amy tan's story "two kinds" best serve as evidence for the thesis on reconciliation? select two options.

“‘of course you can be prodigy, too,’ my mother told me when i was nine.”
“and after seeing my mother's disappointed face once again, something inside of me began to die.”
“‘you want me to be someone that i'm not! ’ i sobbed. ‘i'll never be the kind of daughter you want me to be! ’”
“a few years ago, she offered to give me the piano, for my thirtieth birthday.”
“and after i played them both a few times, i realized they were two halves of the same song.”
