Consider Waverly "Meimei" Jong's actions and their consequences in the short story "Rules of the Game" by Amy Tan. Which theme is supported best by her actions?

A. Like chess, power is gained through strategy, not emotion.

B. Overt strength is more powerful than "invisible strength."

C. Silence is a weapon that should never be wielded.

D. It's impossible for parents to win a battle of wills against their children.

The correct answer is letter A. Like chess, power is gained through strategy, not emotion.

Explanation:

In "Rules of the Game", even though Meimei is just a child, she learns a powerful life lesson. Her mother has taught her that silence is strength. Controlling one's emotions is fundamental to remaining silent and, therefore, being strong. Meimei learns that, but only superficially. Even though she becomes a child prodigy in chess, she cannot overcome and suppress her own childish emotions. The day she allows those emotions to come to surface is the day she loses the match against her mother.

Meimei's mother is happy and proud that her daughter is such a skilled chess player. She goes around showing Meimei off, which greatly annoys her daughter. Meimei ends up screaming at her mother for feeling embarrassed. Right after doing it, she realizes she has given away her strength. She has acted in a weak, desperate, childish manner. Yet, her mother has kept her own composure and silence. Meimei learns then that like chess, power is gained through strategy, not emotion.
